Default Footer

Hi,

I want to create a custom information paragraph similiar to a footer that
would show up at the bottom of every page during printing. Using the footer
in page setup won't work because it's over 255 characters. I guess it would
have a similiar concept in page setup under the sheet tab using the "Rows to
repeat at top" feature. Instead of having the top rows to repeat I need the
bottom rows to repeat. Please help if there's a way.

Thanks,

I would use a separate footer sheet--kind of like backnotes.

But if that's no good, maybe you can use MSWord to create your footer, print a
bunch of sheets with just the footer on the sheet.

The send those sheets through the printer a second time when print the excel
stuff.

Another option--depending on what version of excel you're using...

You could create a picture of your text (in another application) and insert that
picture into the footer inside excel. (I _think_ it was xl2002 that added the
ability to use pictures in headers and footers.)
