A view is a set of display and print settings you can name and apply to a workbook. You can create more than one view of the same workbook without saving each view separately. In Excel there are only two views compared to five in Word. Here are the choices

Normal

This is the default option for the view. As you enter data into the worksheet, you can stay in this view mode. The only thing you see in this view option are the columns and the rows that make up the worksheet.

Page Break View

This view splits the worksheet into printable areas. When you want to print part of the worksheet, you should use this view option
