Asked By Doug Mc

I thought I knew how to do this but it did not work.

I went to Page setup, Sheet and typed in $1:$3 but it did not work.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

It sounds like you set the rows to repeat at top when the worksheet is printed.

If you want to always see rows 1:3 on the display, then...

Select A1 (just so it is visible)
select A4
Window|freeze panes

Everything above the activecell and to the left of the activecell will be
frozen.

Print Page Totals Excel On each page printed I want to sum a column on that page and print that total on the bottom of that page, probably in the footer (ie a total amount for a data entry balancing process performed elsewhere). Each page has its own total it's not a running total. I've tried variations of test' is a named column label: Public Sub Worksheet_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean) ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = "Page Amount = " & Sum([test]) End Sub It doesn't like the Sum function in this event specify the range that you want to sum that is ' visible on this particular printed page dblSum = Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum( rngTest ) ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = "Page Amount = " & dblSum Regards, Bill Thanks Bill. - - Doug F. A followup. If I have this code

Print Word Object in Excel Excel Friends: I have a three page Word object embedded in Excel. Only the first page prints. I believe this to be a limitation of OLE as implemented in Office. Can workaround? I have multiple worksheets that contain financial data and / or analysis. I have a worksheet containing the Word object that contains explanatory notes, etc., to the analyses. My desire is a common header and footer (generated by Excel). The problem is that only the first page of the Word object prints instead of the entire embedded document.

I actually do that now, but the text changes enough Have you considered just copy | pasting all the word document's text into an Instruction worksheet- -just keep the text in excel? - - Dave Peterson Dave: Have you ever pasted a document
sheet name change Excel Hi all. I've got a macro that copies a worksheet from a template workbook, and provides a name of my choosing. More frequently of late, the macro is changing the name of an existing hidden worksheet to match the name that I choose, instead of the newly added worksheet. I know that because I'd check the name to ensure it didn't exist Editable: = True Set TmpltWB = ActiveWorkbook WkBkName = InputBox(prompt: = "enter workbook name of where to copy worksheet", Title: = "Copy worksheet to existing workbook") If Len(WkBkName) = 0 Then Exit Sub WkBkName1 = WkBkName & ".xlsx" Workbooks(WkBkName1 Sheets(ShtCnt) NewNm = InputBox(prompt: = "What is the sheet number you want to call this worksheet?", Title: = "New Abstract Worksheet Name") Sheets(Sheets.Count).Name = NewNm TmpltWB.Activate TmpltWB.Close SaveChanges: = False 'make some additions to this which will copy the headers of the last abstract worksheet.
