A footer is something that appears at the bottom of every worksheet, as opposed to a header, which appears at the top. It is a good idea to use a document identifier, such as the full name and path of your file as your footer. Not only with this enable you to find quickly where you have stored your workbook, but it will enable others to find and modify your workbook should they need to.
Footers are not viewable when your spreadsheet is in Normal view, only Page Layout view or Print Preview.
To insert a footer into your workbook follow these steps:
On the worksheet you wish to have the footer in;
1. Select the Insert tab
2. Select Header & Footer under Text options
Notice that the View of your workbook has changed to Page Layout view and you
are clicked in the centre �Header� area of your worksheet.
3. Select the Go to Footer option under the Navigation group.
You could scroll down the page and click into the Footer area with your mouse
if you prefer.
4. Make sure you are in the left-hand footer area and select File Path
from Header & Footer elements
This will insert what are called �field codes� into your document. A field is
something that can update either automatically or by a prompt. These codes will
show the full filename and path of your document once you have saved it.
5. As a footer should be unobtrusive, highlight and make it a size 8
font.
Note here that the lowest font available in the font sizing box in the Font
group on the home tab is 8, but you can actually type as low as 1pt if you like.
Another handy field that you can put into your footer is the page number and
number of pages.
1. Click in the right hand side of your footer
2. Select the Design tab under Header & Footer tools
3. Type in the word Page and a space. Click the Page Number option under
Header & Footer tools
4. Now type in the word of and another space.
5. Select the Number of Pages option under Header & Footer tools
6. Highlight your field codes and make them a size 8.
Again notice the �field codes� that have been placed in your worksheet. These
will show the current page number and the number of pages in your file.
If you wanted to force your page number to be a certain number ie; if you wanted
to call your first page page 2, try this:
1. On the Page Layout tab, select the dialog box launcher on the Page
Setup group
2. Select the Page tab
3. Under the option First Page Number change the word Auto to page 2, or
whatever number you want.
There are other fields that you can place in your footer, such as the current
date and the current time. Variations of these and other header/footer fields
can be found by selecting either Header or Footer from the Header & Footer group
on the Design tab under Header & Footer tools
Note that if you saved your file as another name, or adjusted the number of pages, or changed the date printed, or in face anything that will force your fields to update, The footer will update either when you save the file, or when you send it to print.
