SUMMARY

In Visual Basic for Applications in Microsoft Excel 97, the Page Setup command (on the File menu) is not available. However, in earlier versions of Microsoft Excel, the Page Setup command is available in a Visual Basic module. You can use this command to modify page settings, such as orientation, scaling, margins, headers, and footers.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Excel 97 ignores Page Setup settings in a module that you create in an earlier version of Microsoft Excel. These settings are not retained if you save the workbook in the "Microsoft Excel Workbook" format. However, if you save the workbook in the "Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 Workbook" format, the settings are retained.

In Microsoft Excel 97, the Visual Basic Editor is the environment in which you create and edit Visual Basic code. The Visual Basic Editor uses an interface that is similar to Microsoft Visual Basic 4.0. This interface does not allow you to use Page Setup options.
