ExcelBanter - Header & Footer

No

Headers and footers are workbook-specific.

You could create a macro in your Personal.xls to set all headers/footers as
you want in any workbook.

Or you could create a default Template that would be the basis for all new
workbooks.

Instructions for Excel 2003 and earlier...........................

Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish. To set a footer for each
sheet, select a sheet then right-click and "select all sheets".

Enter your footer on the active sheet and will be done to all. Ungroup
sheets when done.

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 or CTRL + n

WARNING................Do not use FileNew...Blank Workbook or you will get
the Excel default workbook.

NOTE: Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

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).
