But that won't give you a row header on each page.
It will give you columns down the left side of printout.

No wonder Help could give the answer
First rule - compose the right question.
anyway I think you've got the right menu options to give you control ove= r =
the page layout.

I am not the original poster. But I am totally lost reading this thread. I hope you don't mind me not starting a new thread.
I read Help and I experimented by ticking the checkbox for "rows to repeat at top" and "columns to repeat at left" respectively. Then I clicked print preview. But I didn't see any difference between ticking and not ticking the boxes.
However, I did see a difference by ticking the "Row and column headings" check box.
When I read the question, first thing that came to my mind was "transpose."
Can someone explain, preferably with a print layout on screen, about rows/columns to repeat checkboxes, since I didn't get far with Help and print preview?
Thanks.

Start a new worksheet put =cell("address",a1) in A1 Drag down 100 rows select a1:a100 and drag across 50 columns
Now try those settings.
You should see a difference.

"Rows and columns to repeat" are the contents of the specified cells "Row and Column Headings" are A B C and 1 2 3 etc
You need to set the ones to repeat in File, Page Setup - not possible in= =
the preview A,B 1, 2 etc are useful to help *document* a sheet especially when =
printing the formula

Dave,
Thank you. I did have a feeling that my worksheet wasn't set up properly to do the test although I had more than one page.
Shall I say this is similar to freezing panes but more flexible? For example, if I pick column B, only column B will be repeated. But for freezing panes, both column A **and** B will be displayed, it just can't drop A and display B alone.
I have my query solved plus I get a bonus i.e. learning about "address" in Cell().
So Steve, it is okay that Lighthouse1 didn't compose the question right the first time. Sometimes things happen for a reason and I got to learn something. Yes, I am aware that we can only do the page set up under file and not under print review for this particular feature.
