In the old Lotus 1-2-3 application, this was easily performed by inserting double colons (::) in the top left most cell (A1) of the sheet where you did not want a header or row repeat. Why can't Microsoft do something just as simple? This should be a built-in process that could be enabled with a single click of the mouse. Why all this complication????
Yeah... You would have to export to two .pdfs with different names, then combine those two pdfs (in Adobe?)... I'm in the same boat. Is there a way to automate this last step (via Excel?)? The last page of my exported pdf doesn't require a header.
