Hi,
How can I change the paper size of my excel 2002 document to 11"x17"?  I don't want to enlarge my document - I just need to input quite a bit of info and I need the space that 11"x17" would offer.  I can choose 8 1/2"x14", but I wanted 11"x17".  ??

Nevermind - I figured it out.  11x17 can only be chosen as an option if a printer can print that size - none of mine can.  I was still able to do this by setting Acrobat Distiller as my default and choosing Tabloid (it's 11x17).  I'll have to take my document to a place like Kinkos, but that's okay.  ::)

This is dealt with under Page setup, or scaling to the actual printer.

Selecting a paper size
To change the paper size setting, click the Size button in the Page Setup group of the Page Layout tab, and select the desired size from the resulting drop-down list.
