How to print the correct page of pages when printing multiple worksheets

Tags: headers
Hi Experts,

Currently my application generates an excel file in XML format (XML spreadsheet). It contains multiple worksheets, and the user wants to print all worksheets at one go, by selecting "entire workbook" in "print".

The problem is, we have "page xx of ## pages" in the header. When multiple worksheets are printed, the total number of pages are displayed improperly. e.g. if I have 2 sheets, first have 2 pages, second have 3, it will print out the following on each page, respectively:
page 1 of 5
page 2 of 5
page 1 of 5
page 2 of 5
page 3 of 5

What we want is:
page 1 of 2
page 2 of 2
page 1 of 3
page 2 of 3
page 3 of 3

Is there any way to do this? Please note that the Excel is in XML format, so no macros possible.

The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is.
