how can I align excel page numbers with Word

[Kenneth]

Does anyone know how to align the page numbers from Excel with the page
numbers in Word? I often put together a report with both Word documents
and Excel spreadsheets in the same report and so I want the page
numbers to be displayed on both throughout the whole report. However,
the page numbers in Word are always different than those in Excel. In
Word, I can set the font and the margin of the footer section where the
page number is displayed, but in Excel I can only set the font, not the
margin of the excel footer. Also, if the excel spreadsheet is too big
for one sheet, excel will shrink the page so that it fits on the page
which also shrinks the page number font (so the page number font in
excel is often useless). I've tried importing my excel spreadsheets
into Word so that they're all in the same document, but that is such a
pain. It ends up not being worth it. I just want the page numbers to
look the same!!!!!! Any help would be great, thanks!

It may not be an acceptable workaround for you, but you could print
numbered blank pages in Word, then print the Excel sheets, without
numbering, on those preprinted pages.
