Alt + F11 to open Visual Basic Editor.

CTRL + r to open Project Explorer.

Select your workbook/project and Right-clickInsertModule.

Paste the code in there.

Alt + q to return to the Excel and ToolsMacroMacros to run the macro.

Or you could place the code into Thisworkbook module as a Before_Print event to
run whenever you printed the activesheet.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
With ActiveSheet
.PageSetup.CenterFooter = "To: " & .Range("A1").Value & vbLf & _
"Attention: " & .Range("A2").Value & vbLf & _
"Phone Number: " & .Range("A3").Value
End With
End Sub

To use that method, right-click on the Excel Icon left of "File" and select
"View Code".

Copy/paste the Before_Print code into that module.

Do I create via Tools - Macro - Visual Basic Editor?

If so, once I've created the procedure, how do I invoke?

Thanks for the quick reply.

Assumes 3 cells have the data.

If only one cell, do the editing.

Sub CellInFooter()
With ActiveSheet
.PageSetup.CenterFooter = "To: " & .Range("A1").Value & vbLf & _
"Attention: " & .Range("A2").Value & vbLf & _
"Phone Number: " & .Range("A3").Value
