APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q123192

SYMPTOMS

In the versions of Microsoft Excel listed at the beginning of this article, when you use the View Manager add-in to save a view of your worksheet, the Header and Footer From Edge values are not saved.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the Header and Footer From Edge setting is a new Page Setup setting in Microsoft Excel versions 5.0 and 7.0. This setting is not included as one of the Page Setup settings that is saved by the View Manager when you create a view.

STATUS

This is a known problem in the versions of Microsoft Excel listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Excel 97 for Windows and Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition.

MORE INFORMATION

In Microsoft Excel versions 5.0 and later, you can set the distance you want between the header and the top of the page, and between the footer and the bottom of the page. You can do this by using the Margins tab in the Page Setup dialog box, and by entering the desired value under From Edge in the Header and Footer boxes.
