Header in spreadsheet

I have a spreadsheet with 11 columns. When printed it comes out to about 14 pages. I thought I could insert a header so every page would have the columns listed but can't seem to get it done. I have gone to "Page Layout" view and clicked in the header tab but can't seem to insert a header that fits my need. It doesn't line up or I get a message that I have "used too many characters".

I can't believe it is this complicated so figure I must be missing something. I have put the headings I need in below which at the moment are just in line 1. Guess I could do this on each page but, as mentioned, I have got to believe there is an easier way! Thanks in advance.

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
If i get you correctly, if you need a header repeated on every page.

You can go to PAge Layout Tab and "Page Setup" grop and on the Sheet Tav of the dialog box, you would see "Row to repeat" and "Columns to repeat".

you can point it to the appropriate rows and columns and it should repeat on all pages
