how set view>zoom>75% for always
Thanks for any help.
My Excel zoom is set for 100%, automatically. I would like to set it for 75% automatically, is there a way to do that? I looked in ToolsOptions but couldn't find anything. Thanks very much. |

The Zoom factor is a setting that applies to each worksheet and window
individually, and is saved with the workbook. So any existing worksheets/windows will already have their zoom and there is no overriding setting that will change it. You could change it manually or through a macro and the new zoom will always be there for that window. If you want all worksheets in new workbooks to be zoomed to 75% you're going to have to create a default template with that zoom. If you search in Help on "Customize how Excel starts" it explains how to create a default template. -- Jim "Ian Elliott" wrote in message ... | Thanks for any help. | My Excel zoom is set for 100%, automatically.

Open a new workbook. Make all the changes that you want in your new
workbook, view %, margin size, etc. Choose, File, Save As, in the new window that pops up, at the very bottom it says 'save as type' click on the arrow, scroll as needed, and choose Template (*xlt), then name this new workbook. To use this new template, choose File, new, then choose the desired workbook. I don't know if you can set this up as the default workbook or not. I have not wanted my alternate workbooks to be the main one so I have not explored this. Maybe someone else will have the answer to that.

To have the template as the default workbook name it BOOK.XLT and save into your XLSTART folder. When hitting FileNew(not New...which brings up the task pane)) the new workbook will be based on the template BOOK.XLT Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Fri, 30 Sep 2005 13:39:03 -0700, "Judy" wrote: Open a new workbook.
