Microsoft works spreadsheet help

[tx grl]

I am not using Excel, sorry dont know where to post. But I hope someone will
help me anyway. I would like to create a spreadsheet with multiple tabs (one
for each month) in a master spreadsheet. I cant figure it out, I have seen
it done...is it possible, if so can you help me??

Thanks in advance,

Not only do you not have Excel, for some reason you have written to the Mac
Excel newsgroup. We don't have Microsoft Works on the Mac - it doesn't exist
here. (I think it did once, many years ago, on an older OS.) I suppose there
might be someone here who also has a Windows computer, and Works too, and
knows the answer. But you'd be much better off writing to this newsgroup:

microsoft.public.works.win


If there's no one there, you could try microsoft.public.excel, and hope for
the best.

Try this. I haven't tested it. I read that this should work.

Create a master workbook with the number of sheets you want, print
settings, column widths and whatever.

Save the Workbook as:

/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/StartUp/Excel/book.xlt

That should do it.

You might have to fuss with permissions, but I figure you know your mac
well enough to handle that.

When Excel start up it should look in that directory first for a
default template workbook and go with that.
