How to Insert Page Numbers in Multiple Worksheets in Excel 2010

January 24, 2012

There may be instances where you have more than a couple of worksheets in Your Excel 2010 workbook and you might want to number the worksheets in a single go rather than have to do it individually for each worksheet. This is possible by using the grouping feature, which lets you accomplish a common task across multiple worksheets, such as formatting data in multiple worksheets. In this tutorial, learn how to insert page numbers in multiple worksheets in Excel 2010 using the Page Setup dialog box.

How to Insert Page Numbers in Multiple Worksheets in Excel 2010

Remember that when you print out each individual worksheet, there may be multiple page numbers in each worksheet. To add page numbers to all worksheets in a sequential order:

1. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher.

2. If necessary, in the Page Setup dialog box, on the Page tab, in the First page number text box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.

By default, when you print an Excel worksheet, the worksheet is numbered from top down and then from left to right. If you want to change the worksheet to be numbered from left to right and then top down, in the Page Setup dialog box, on the Sheet tab, in the Page order section, select Over, then down.
