Interesting and partially true. Lots of our returning and disabled vets that we work with at www.globaltrainingfoundation.org don't even have basic computer skills, much less an online presence. Nice article for the computer savvy.

There are a couple of ways you can approach creating page borders for an Excel printout, but none of them are automatic. One way is to create an image of your border using your favorite graphics program and save it as a JPG, PNG, or TIF file. (You could actually use several other image file formats, but these are ones typically supported by all the graphics programs.) In Excel you can then, within the header, insert the picture of the border. Format the picture to adjust the image size so it covers your whole page.
