show column headings
I believe you assign a heading to a column by selecting the column and
entering text ... .... but my worksheet is in a strange mode where the heading doesn't show up in the column header cell. Instead, the default "A","B","C" headings appear. |

show column headings
You cannot make manual entries into the default header row where the A, B,
C... automatically appear upon opening a file. You have to use one of the rows which start with row 1, but you can use any row for a header row if you do not like row 1. Then just list your other data beneath the headers. Now, Excel also provides for headers and footers on the printed pages. Those are handled thro8ugh the Page Setup facility.

But I have a Workbook where the the first 6 column headers have been
replaced with custom text. I didn't create this Workbook, but someone figured out how to do it. "JLGWhiz" wrote in message ...

hi
excel gives you the option to show or hide the default headers(and row numbers). to hide the default header ie A,B,C, etc (and row numbers)... on the menu bartoolsoptionsview tabuncheck "row & column headers". you can then use row 1 for custom headers. the default headers are still there just hidden. excel needs these default headers and row numbers. that is the way excel keeps track of everything and knows where everything is at. excel reserved.

Thanks.
But my Workbook still has the row headers column and the column headers row -- I know because in Excel 2007 I de-select View Headers and the top row and leftmost column dissapear. But for my column headers, the "A" , "B" , "C" have been replaced with custom text.
