Will this work in 2003. I have several clients that have hundreds of files
that do not have the picture preview option checked. They are doing each one
individually.......

Are you trying to make it so you don't have to check the box each time?

If that's what you meant, you can make this the default settings for new
workbooks by creating/modifying a template file.

If you create a workbook named Book.xlt and save it into your XLStart folder,
every new workbook that you create will inherit this attribute.

So you can set up page layout, header/footers as well as
file|properties|summary tab|save preview picture.

If you're looking for the location of your XLStart folder:

Open excel
alt-f11 to get to the vbe
ctrl-g to see the immediate window

type this and hit enter
?application.startuppath

For me (xl2002 and win98), I get:
C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
