Select one sheet then right-click on the sheet tab and "Select all sheets".
Do your print setup on the active sheet and will be done to all.
Notable exceptions.............print range cannot be set, rows to repeat at top
cannot be set.
If you want all new workbooks and sheets to have those settings...............
Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish.
e.g. To set a footer for each sheet, select a sheet then right-click and
"select all sheets".
Enter your footer on the active sheet and will be done to all. Ungroup sheets
when done.
File>Save As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your
workbook "BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT.
Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
This will be the default workbook for File>New or the Toolbar button File>New or
CTRL + n
WARNING................Do not use File>New...Blank Workbook or you will get the
Excel default workbook.
NOTE: Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.
You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default Insert>Sheet.
More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).
