insert the content of a cell into a header/footer
 
I want to insert the content (text) of a selected cell in a header/footer of
Excel.
For example, Cell A1 (on sheet 1) contains a label. How can I get that
label to show in a header?

You will have to use a macro, if you are familiar with macros
and know you need a macro the newsgroup is microsoft.public.excel.programming

this is an example of the line of code you will have to work into your macro.

Activesheet.PageSetup.CenterFooter=Range ("A1").value

See http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/pathname.htm for
more information for sample macro coding and see boxed note at top
if not already familiar with macros..
