printing? I don't want to add it in the header or footer of every document I print. I want this to happen automactically |

I won't speak for Word but in Excel you can change the default Template for New
workbooks to print the date on all sheets when printing. Note the "New workbooks" Existing workbooks would need to be set up via manual addition to the header/footer or via VBA macro. To change the default Template for all New workbooks................... Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish. Note: you can set all sheet footers at the same time by "grouping" the sheets. Right-click on a sheet tab and "select all sheets". Set up a footer on the active sheet and will be done to all. Ungroup when setup is complete. FileSave As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your workbook "BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT. Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........ C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART This will be the default workbook for FileNew or the Toolbar button FileNew Do not use FileNew...Blank Workbook or you will get the Excel default workbook. Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings and would require a macro or grouping the sheets and make settings as above. You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes the default InsertSheet. More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).
