Hi Karen

Thank you for your question

You can do this using the printout method of the active window object. You first need to write the code to select the sheet that you want printing and then use the following line of code

ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1

I suggest that you look up the printout method in the object browser to get a full understanding of its parameters

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Highlighting a data range

Attempting to use a mouse to highlight a large range of cells with data in Excel can make the mouse to have a life of it's own!

Use keyboard strokes instead.

Step 1. Place the cusor in the cell where the highlighting should begin.

Step 2. Select keystroke, CTRL+SHIFT+END

This will take the cursor to the furthermost bottom corner of the data range found in that worksheet. And highlight that range of cells at the same time
