    VBA to create custom headers for certain worksheets in a workbook

    Hi,

    I'd like to create custom headers for certain worksheets in my workbook. They will need to be a mix of text and a date reference from a cell in the workbook. The worksheets are called:
    • Spend
    • Savings
    • Sector
    • Customer & Supplier
    • MI

    The first text element will be "Performance Report".

    The date (located in a tab called 'Lookup', cell C19, that has a named range of 'Lookup.MonthSelected') is input in the format xx/xx/xxxx. I'd like it to show in the header in the format mmmm yyyy.

    The last text element will be as follows in relation to the list above.
    • "- Spend Analysis"
    • "- Savings Position"
    • "- Sector Analysis"
    • "- Customer & Supplier Analysis"
    • "- MI Position"

    For example, the header for the 'Spend' tab will be 'Performance Report November 2016 (or whatever date is selected in Lookup!C19) - Spend Analysis'

    Thanks in advance,

    Snook

    Re: VBA to create custom headers for certain worksheets in a workbook

    Cheers xlnitwit, it works a treat!

    I've merged it with an event driven macro I use to time stamp the footer with the last saved detail. How can I tweak it so that the font (in the header only) is set to bold Arial size 10?
