Excel Footer Character Limit
I have a footer which is well under the 250 character limit but I receive an error message that "the text string you entered is too long" when I bold a few words. Does anyone know why this happens? A...
av_church This is due to the fact that making the word limit bold, behind the scenes changes the information in the header to:
&"Calibri,Bold"limit&"Calibri,Regular"
So instead of 5 characters, limit now contributes 38 characters to the header.
JKPieterse Thank's for explaining, looks like I will try the other suggestion of a picture with the text.
