I tried to use XL4 Page.Setup function to speed up setting properties and I
received an error when trying to apply a font and font style to the header or

"PAGE.SETUP(\"&L&\"Arial, Bold\"&14U_LEVEL&R&\"Arial,
Bold\"&14U_LEVEL\",\"&L&\"Arial, Bold\"&14U_LEVEL&R&\"Arial,
Bold\"&14U_LEVEL\",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,0.025,0.30,,)"

Error message received:

If I remove the font and font style, then the function executes successfully.
"PAGE.SETUP(\"&L&14U_LEVEL&R&14U_LEVEL\",\"&L&14U_ LEVEL&R&14U_LEVEL\",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,0.025,0.30,,)"

Thanks,

Jim - Thanks for the suggestion but the slash is needed before the text (c#
syntax) to have double quotation marks around fontname and fontstyle.

I didn't run your code but I think that the slash before the "Arial"'s
should be inside the quotes.
