ExcelBanter - printout with auto date

In xl2003 menus:
File|page setup|custom footer

Look for a calendar like icon and press that icon.

The selected segment (right, middle, left) header will get "&[Date]" added.

If you don't want to use the format for that date that this provides, you'll
need a workbook event macro.

This kind of code runs when you print or print preview:

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wks As Worksheet
For Each wks In Me.Worksheets
wks.PageSetup.LeftFooter = Format(Date, "mmmm dd yyyy")
Next wks
End Sub

This code goes in the ThisWorkbook module.

If you're new to macros:

Debra Dalgleish has some notes how to implement macros he

David McRitchie has an intro to macros:

(General, Regular and Standard modules all describe the same thing.)
