How to save a custom made header&footer
 
I´m trying to save a custom made header & footer because I´m useing it in
multiple worksheets and it is repeating the whole time.

Can somebody tell me, how I could save my header & footer?

It contains a picture and adress lines.

Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish, including your footer. FileSave
As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your workbook
"BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT.

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

This will be the default workbook for FileNew

Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default InsertSheet.

More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).

Thanks for that, but is there any possibility to insert custom made headers &
footers to sheets that are allready been filled out?

You would have to re-create the custom header/footer on a workbook basis.

Open an existing workbook.

Select all sheets by right-clicking on a sheet tab and "select all sheets"

Create your footer/header on the active sheet and it will be done to all sheets.

DO NOT FORGET to ungroup the sheets when done.

Alternative.....have a macro in your Personal.xls or an add-in and run that
macro on each existing workbook.

Sub Path_All_Sheets()
Set wkbktodo = ActiveWorkbook
For Each ws In wkbktodo.Worksheets
ws.PageSetup.RightFooter = ActiveWorkbook.FullName & " " & Chr(13) _
& Application.UserName & " " & Date
Next
End Sub

Adapt the macro to your needs.
