Ability to use Master pages in a .dta file to add a header and footer to Excel exports, and not just to .doc and .pdf exports

Our document archival process requires that archived documents contain a cover sheet with a header and footer, and some of those documents are in Excel. Currently, users are manually adding a cover sheet on Excel exported documents. This is cumbersome and time-consuming.
