Re: Excel 2003 list of field codes for footers?

There is no field code that I am aware of to enter the user name in a
header or footer. A macro would be necessary. The following are the
codes that can be used when writing a macro.
Some, maybe all appear to work when entered manually.

The macro code for a user name would look something like...
Active***.PageSetUp.LeftFooter = Application.UserName

Hi - I am trying to add a "saved by" type of field to a custom footer in
Excel 2003. What I want is a document to print with footers that say who has
modified it last among some other fields. I was wondering if somewhere there
is a list of all the field codes (like "$[code]") available beyond what icons
you can click on when you open the custom footer dialog. I thought I saw a
list before in help on Excel but I can't find it again. I just want to be
able to write in new field codes for printing custom footers, and want more
complicated field codes than the 6 or 8 that Excel gives me automatically.

Also, is there a way to apply a footer made in one sheet to all sheets? I
have a lot of sheets in one book and don't want to repeat my entry.

Thanks!
