Default Custom Footers.

As I have heard different stories of wether it is possible to put the
contents of a cell into a custom footer, please can someone tell me if it is
possible or not.
The cell contents simply contains text.

Thanking you in anticipation

You need VBA to do this. In the ThisWorkbook code module, use
code like the following:

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.CenterHeader = Range("A1").Text
End Sub

Hi, Big guy. Here's some exact instructions. Just change LeftHeader to
LeftFooter, or whatever.
