unintentionally changing SS
 

Hello forum. I have a problem. Sometimes when looking at an older SS on
the computer, I find the totals changed from when I originally printed
them. I'm suspecting it has something to do with the headings/page
break numbers that I add to the second/ third page after totaling all
columns and rows. Or maybe the notations I write up at bottom of SS.

Is there a way to lock ( and Unlock for adding an add't row of data ) a
SS so it cannot be changed? Or, preferably, is there a way to -print -
the page that will automatically add headings and titles to second and
third pages without me actually entering the headings etc between the
figures when there is a page break. Each month's SS will always have
2-3 pages and each page has to have the headings etc. It's always the
grand totals that are changed. The row upon row of currency data stays
the same.

Hi there,

Here's a great article about how to have your heading rows repeat at the top
of every page you print:

And for locking down your cells:

Hope this helps,

Omgosh, that is so cool. What a program! Thank you thank you. Maybe now
there won't be these changes in the totals. :cool:

One more thing... How do I get it to also print Page 1 of 2, Page 2 of
2, etc.?

Er.. And one more question. Since there are so many pages, it is easy to
get mixed up as to which column you are in when you can no longer see
the headings. Is there a way to get the headings from the first page to
slide down as you go lower from row to row? Thank you.

Go to View--Header and Footer. Use a Custom Header or Footer and type the
following:
Page &[Page] of &[Pages] (the buttons help with the &[Page] parts of the
"code".

Thank you Ken and Anne. This forum is tops. I nearly always get great
informative precise instructions. There isn't much of a problem that
someone doesn't have an answer. Ya'll have a great weekend. :)
