Solved: Excel footer wont widen to text margins!?
HI,
Please is there anyone who can help me with widening the picture footer inserted in an excel document. I've tried everything. the picture is the correct width, but idening the margins to zero doesn't alter the footer margin that seems to be set to 20mm (cutting off both sides of the inserted picture) regardless of the rest of the document that's set and printing with an 8mm margin. Am going potty. There must be a way! My office is 2000.

I'd be so grateful if anyone can help.
Many thanks

I can't find a way to print clear across just within the footer or header. Excel isn't a great program for graphics in many ways.The best I could do was to insert a picture into the left of the 3 footer parts, highlighting the words and clicking on the Format Picture button. In there I was able to stretch it across after unchecking Lock Aspect Ratio.
But I was still left with a blank space on both sides, despite having margins of 0.

Many thanks for that, but in the end I found that I can stretch the header and footer in WORD so inserted an EXCEL box and get over it that way. Not ideal but it works.
Cheers.
