Try

Group all the sheets that you want similar header by pressing Shift
and click on the sheets' tab
Go to A1 and type in your header follow by other cells on the first row,
assuming
that you want your headers on the first row
press Enter
Deactivate Group sheets by clicking on one sheet
The same header/s now appear in all sheets you have selected

Right-click on a sheet tab and "Select all sheets"

Set up the header on active sheet and will be done to all.

This can lead to some problems if you want other print settings different
for each sheet.

I would tend to use a macro so other print settings do not get altered.

Sub AllHeaders()
Dim WS As Worksheet
For Each WS In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
WS.PageSetup.CenterHeader = "&""Algerian,Regular""&16" _
& "This is my header text"
Next
End Sub

Francis,
Thanks for the reply. I will try that but what I wanted was to use the
headers and footers tab under View rather than an individual cell. Will your
method work this way? I've got to try it.

Thank you to all that replied. I have tried the suggestions and they work
great. I am embarrassed that I couldn't figure it out myself. This is the
first time I have used this forum, always used USENET before, and it has
worked great. Thank you so much.

You can access the message/answers using either a web browser (forum), OR
with an email client by setiing up a newsgroup account. Many nof us find the
latter to be more convenient.
Set up new newsgoup account specifying: msnews.microsoft.com as the server

Francis' method is used to replicate titles in row 1 across all sheets.

Not for Headers and Footers.
