Hi fellow Excel Addict,
 

It may be only two months away from Christmas but it doesn't feel like it today. It's a nice, bright, cool fall day here in Newfoundland and much of the leaves have fallen making for some spectacular scenery when the sun is shining brightly.

 Easily Copy Just The Page Setup Settings From One Worksheet to Another

When you make a copy of a worksheet tab in Excel by holding down the CTRL key and dragging the sheet tab, the print settings get copied as well. However, if you want to copy just the Print (i.e. Page Setup) Settings from one sheet to one or more other sheets, there doesn't appear to be an option to do that.

But there is! In fact, there is a VERY SIMPLE , EASY and FAST way to do this that you may have never heard of.

1) First, select the sheet tab whose print settings you want to copy;

2) Hold down the CTRL key and click each sheet tab you want to copy the print settings to;

3) From the Page Layout tab, click Print Titles to open the Page Setup dialog.
Alternatively, you can get to the Page Setup dialog by clicking the tiny arrow on the bottom right corner of the Page Setup group. Then simply click OK;

4) The last VERY IMPORTANT step is to right click any sheet tab and click Ungroup Sheets. If you don't ungroup the sheets, you could really mess up all of your sheets because everything you do to one sheet will be duplicated in all other selected sheets.
