Prev: A tough one? Two page template with separate headers and rolling.
Next: Centre align if less than one line of text
From: bmowell on 31 May 2010 05:08 Doug, Thanks! That works great for pushing the bottom row and columns onto the next two pages, however I still don't see a way to be able to carry the cells that contain my column names onto the two new pages without doing it manually. I have not been using headers because I couldn't figure out how to have different headers (1-10) across the original two pages - it would only let me have duplicate headers from page one to page two. Any ideas? lol. :-) "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: > On 31/05/2010 4:09 PM, bmowell wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I've tried to find out all day if this can be accomplished: > > > > I am in the audio/visual industry and am trying a new script/outline format > > for video and audio production. > > > > I'd like to carry around a letter sized binder.

(Those rows should then be excluded from the "Print area" that you can set via that same dialog so that they are not duplicated on the first printed pages.) -- Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP Please reply to the newsgroup unless you want to obtain my services on a professional basis.
From: Graham Mayor on 31 May 2010 05:42 You can do this from page setup e.g. In Excel 2007, the Page Setup is on the Page Layout tab. Click the arrow in the bottom right corner of the section. On the Sheet tab select row(s) to repeat at the top - probably $1:$1. In page order check Over then Down. Odd pages will display the header row from the first 'page'. Even pages will display the header row from the second 'page'. Excel 2003 has a similar dialog accessed from the File menu and the settings above are available and it works in the same way. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "bmowell" <bmowell(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:70DE2900-8894-4949-B174-3957710F611F(a)microsoft.com... > Doug, > > Thanks!
