Default Programming footer

The following code will programmatically add the user's name as well as date
and time to the right footer as well as setting the fonts of both lines in
the footer.

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = _
"&""Brush Script mt,italic""&14" & Application.UserName & _
Chr(10) & "&""Times New Roman""&8" & "&D &T"

How do I get it to underline the user name? (only the user name)

Hi
AFAIK you can't achieve this as you can set the font style only for the
complete fotter text

If you record a macro when you do this manually, you'll see that &U turns on/off
underlining. Just select your charactersto underline, then hit the A icon and
format those characters like you want:

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = _
"&""Brush Script mt,italic""&14&U" & Application.UserName & _
Chr(10) & "&U&""Times New Roman""&8" & "&D &T"

The code I posted worked nicely for me (xl2002).

Can you post your code--and what is returned by application.username?

Great! Was wondering if there was a way to turn it off. Just ask Dave, when
he's feeling ten feet tall.

Try this version with the extra U:

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = _
"&""Brush Script mt,italic""&14&U" & Application.UserName & _
Chr(10) & "&U&""Times New Roman""&8" & "&D &T"


One &U turns on the underlining. One &U turns off the underlining. Just
like

No U after char(10), the code I posted actually was copied and pasted.
Only one 'U' in the code.

Can you find the difference:

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = _
"&""Brush Script mt,italic""&14&U" & Application.UserName & _
Chr(10) & "&U&""Times New Roman""&8" & "&D &T"

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = _
"&""Brush Script mt,italic""&14&U" & Application.UserName & _
Chr(10) & "&""Times New Roman""&8" & "&D &T"

(look for an extra &U after the chr(10) portion.)

(Sometimes copying and pasting from the newsgroup post is a good
thing.

my network login "J_Doe" is returned by <application.username

The problem right now is that all of the footer is underlined, not
the
username only.

user decision? Any help welcome!.

Thanks in advance

GuardarAntes()
MsgBox "Save Changes?", vbYesNoCancel, "Save?"

If VbMsgBoxResult.vbYes = 6 Then
MsgBox "Yes"
End If
If VbMsgBoxResult.vbNo = 7 Then
MsgBox "No"

Have you tried the documentation for Msgbox? It gives an example...
