    Change a page number on a workbook with multiple sheets

    I have a workbook with multiple sheets. I want to be able to print the workbook by clicking on "entire workbook" and have the page numbering start with the second sheet of the workbook as page one. (The page numbers in my workbook are inserted by virtue of using the "insert page number" key under page footer.)

    I know that I could accomplish this by keying in the actual numbers on the pages instead of using the "insert page number" key, but in my case some of the sheets contain multiple pages.

    Any ideas?

    Try this, I'm assumming that your first page in your workbook is only printing one page.

    Go to the first page in the book, go to File > Page setup > Page, change the First Page number from "Auto" to 0 - press OK

    Then click File > Print > Entire Workbook > Preview. You should now be starting numbering -1- from page 2
