Copying Print Settings From One Worksheet To Another
Aug 12, 2009
I am trying to copy the print settings(including the headers and footers) for one excel worksheet to another. I have found the following hint on internet and it works fine for copying the print setting(including the head/foot) but it is also grouping the worksheets. Click on the tab of the worksheet you want to copy. Then hold down the Shift or Ctrl key and click on the tab of the worksheet where you want the settings and click on File, Page Setup and OK. How can I just copy the print setting without grouping the worksheets?
At my company we need to print our workbooks containing 3 to 24 worksheets. The first page should be printed on different paper than the other pages. From various forums I gathered that it's not possible to set the papertray using vba. Those forums suggest 3 things: 1. Windows Api functions (don't work at our company(security)), 2. SendKeys (don't work because of different printers, office versions and future-proofness) and 3.
Define printerdrivers per tray.
This last I did, so there are printerdrivers for tray3 and tray4.
With the following code I try to print the workbook:
Public Sub printSheets(strP1 As String, strP2 As String) Dim curPrinter As String, firstPage As Worksheet, otherSheet As Worksheet, x As Integer Set firstPage = Application. ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1) curPrinter = Application.ActivePrinter
The problem: The sheets are sent to the printers specified as strP1 and strP2, but the tray-settings from these printers are "overruled" by Excel; they are printed from the papertray that was the default of the printer when Excel was started.
Also, using the default printer dialog from Excel has the same problem; when the (windows-)default printer is Tray3 then all the pages come from there, even when printer Tray4 is selected as the printer. In Word or Acrobat etc the prints come from the right tray.
How do I change the print settings of individual pages within a worksheet. Specifically, I'd like my worksheet to print out 4 pages, the first as portrait and the remaining as landscape.
I am having trouble disabling the "Preview" button when calling Application.Dialogs(xldialogprint) in XL2003. I have an xlSheetVeryHidden worksheet containing a form which is made visible programatically when the user wishes to print a copy (code below). I want the user to be able to have access to the functionality of the xlDialogPrint dialog (i.e. select desired print destination, number of copies, pages per sheet etc.) but I also want to prevent them modifying the page setup of the protected worksheet by initiating a preview from the print dialog.
Private Sub btnPrintReturnForm_Click()
wbkRUSC.Unprotect sysPass 'unprotect workbook to enable changes to sheet visibility ' (sysPass is project constant string containing password)
shtStaffForm.Visible = xlSheetVisible 'make staff form visible
shtCalc.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden 'hide main calculator in case user gets smart and hits..............................
Is there a way to force a print RANGE, and add settings such as margins, and print to range to 1 page wide and 1 page tall? Can this be set with VBA? I tried to make a marcro but it crashes. This is for Excel 2002.
I currently have a template that I have made and all the info and everything is fine on it, but the problem is with printing. Every time I go to print it wants to print out 100 copies of the same thing. I tried editing the original template by printing 1 copy then saving the template, but it still wants to print 100 copies with the next try. how to customize what the print settings are for the template and make them stay permanent with the template?
I have about 100 different workbooks that all need to have the same format and page set up for printing. The different workbooks just all need to be setup to have landscape.
Is it possible to set the same print area and print settings i.e. Landscape and 1 page tall by 2 pages wide, across all worksheets in an excel file? I have a file with 365 worksheets. They all have the exact same layout and need to be printed off daily. I can set the print settings every day manually but was wondering if there is an easy way to do them all in one go?
The following line of VBA code executes properly if machine settings are US English, but throws a "Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error" ? ...
Since upgrading to Windows 2007 (I was already using Excel 2007) I am having issues with the content in the cells on the worksheet not appearing the same on Print Preview and when I print. On the worksheet the cell show to be at the best fit both horizontally and vertically. When I look at the contents under print preview, the contents are squashed from the top and cut off from the left. This happens whether I have the format in Top or Central align and is even worse if I use Bottom align. It is also somewhat worse if I have thickened boarders.
I just converted from Excel 2003 to 2007 and print previewed a worksheet and find a tiny image with a small portion of the print area. When I look at the sheet in page break preview mode, I see the 8.5 x 11 sheet broken up into approx 77 smaller sheets. When I try to move the page breaks to include the whole sheet it states the change cannot be made as it will result in an image less than 10%. I have attached two images - the first shows the print preview I get, and the second show the multiple pages when I view in page break.
I have been using this code and just noticed that it resets all of my options buttons to false when I exit and then re-enter (activate) the sheet with the option buttons.
I see where this is going on, but don't know how to correct it. I only want the option buttons changed to false if
The Sol named range is something other than "Primary Vendor". It seems to call the macro ClearOB whenener the sheet is activated.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate() If Range("Sol").Value = "Primary Vendor" Then For Each OB In ActiveSheet.OptionButtons OB.Enabled = True Next OB ClearOB ActiveSheet.ScrollArea = "A1:K58"
Excel 2007 - need to adjust protected view settings but the protected view tab is missing from my Trust Centre settings - have the following tabs - trusted publisher / location, add-ins, activeX, macro, message bar, external content and privacy options. Document is a revenue authority download and without being able to adjust the protected view settings, can't input data.
I have a sheet which contains a list of products. I have created a check box next to each name with the linked cell in the adjecent column. I have formatted the cell so you can see the TRUE or FLASE.
I need to be able to select different products and then when I run a macro, it places all of the selected products onto the second sheet. I just need it so it lists the products in column A with no blank rows.
Can this be done using Index/Match? Would a macro which achieves all this be possible?
I need help with a macro for copying and pasting of cells. I believe this should not be a problem for the Excel VBA experts, but for someone who can only record macro, I'm really at a loss.
Attached is a sample file, where sheet 'Source' is an example of the sheet from which data are to be copied. The other sheet, sheet 'Final' is an example of the final format that I need. The reason I'm doing this is I'm planning to upload my data into Access and so I need to convert them into a list format.
List of target columns in sheet 'Final' and source cells in sheet 'Source':
Column A: Biz ID - not sure if I really need this, by right it should be listed automatically once I paste the data Column B: B2 of 'Source' Column C: B2 of 'Source' Column D: B1 of 'Source' Column E: row 6, relevant column column F: column K column G: row 5, relevant column column H: the specific amount
So basically I'm creating an entry for every amount in the table.
There is an autofilter applied to worksheet A, I would like to transfer only the autofiltered range from worksheet A to worksheet B, a clear worksheet B statement would also help.
I have one worksheet from which i need to copy only few columns (Ex column A,B, D,G...need not be in sequence.....) to a new sheet.can you please help me to write a macro for this.In addition: Do we need to specify the number of rows in column or is there any way to get data till the end of column automatically.
I have a workbook that I am sending out to others for them to fill out. I would like to have them be able to click on a cell (or text within a cell) and have Excel print that worksheet in landscape mode or at least open the print dialog box.
what is the vba to print every worksheet within an excel workbook?
also, i've been working on saving each worksheet and have the code for that, therefore, can show me how to loop through the count of worksheets (which will be changing every time i run the macro).
is it somelike like count the worksheet(s) first and then loop all of them. from there within the loop i can call the sub SAVE() and use the cmd "ActiveSheet.PrintOut".
i am trying to use "Worksheets.Move After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)" but i am not getting there.
Subscript 9 error that Ive been getting when I run this macro. It has worked in the past, but when I tried to test it today I keep getting errors on the array portion.
I finally found a vba that will print my excel worksheet as a pdf.
Sub PrinttoPDF() ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _ "CutePDF Writer on CPW2:", Collate:=True End Sub
My questions are:
-How do I set a path for this printout. right now its printing out the pdf on my desktop. -How can I name the pdf file to a value in a cell. right now i have to manually name. -Is there a way to email this file from the path i just saved it in?
I have a workbook with 150-some-odd sheets, each with a store number. I would like to loop through each sheet & print that sheet to the printer with the same name in my printers & faxes queue.
(eg. sheet 9604 would print to printer name oki9604)
I'm attempting to copy the contents of the first row in the "banking center" worksheet into the first rows of all the other worksheets in the workbook. Ideally, I'd like to select from A1 to the last column in row 1 to copy. Edit: Fixed a couple things but still having trouble with the copying section.
What I want is, whenever I enter the quantity in Sheet1 it will copy the row in Sheet2, say it will start in row 5 without the blank row and it is something like this:
I have 2 workbooks, one is called AllData.xls and the other is SavedData.xls. I want to be able to copy only the highlighted data from AllData.xls and automatically populate to SavedData.xls by using a button.
I have a worksheet set up with a number of pivot tables to show job summaries for each project manager. I created buttons labeled with each project manager that trigger a macro to filter the results to only show jobs for that specific project manager. There's one button for each project manager.
I'd like to create a macro that will essentially show each project manager's report and compile the result into one PDF. I only have 5 project managers so I don't need an array or anything if that makes it easier, I could write the code manually for each one.
So basically, it would do this:
1. Run macro to filter results to only show Project Manager #1 jobs. 2. "temporarily" print to PDF. 3. Run macro to filter results to only show Project Manager #2 jobs. 4. "temporarily" print to PDF. 5. Run Macro for Project Manager #3, etc..... ............... Final step. Compile all the "temporary" pdfs into one file.
I would like to set the printer area of an Excel worksheet. I would like to print one page starting from row A3005-V3220. However, I cannot change the print area. Excel wants each row to be another page. When I drag the blue print area lines, nothing happens. So right now I have 216 pages and only want one!
In Column C (C11:C28) I have Sheet Names - Descriptors and then in Column D (D11:D28) I have the "YES" or "NO" for whether the sheet should print There could be blanks rows or rows with just heading text on them.
This project uses Table of Contents and what is on the specific sheet I use a Formula [=CONCATENATE("Agenda1 - ",Agenda1!H1)] on some of the Rows. These all then Hyperlink to the appropriate worksheet. Not all Rows will have the Formula if it is easily identifiable.
The name of the sheet is Either the Name As Is Unless there is a hyphen and if there is a hyphen then the sheet name is the first word up to the space.
I'm sure this is doable with VBA I just don't know how to manipulate the - out of the names and do the appropriate sheet selections so that I can print all of the selected sheets.
My current data looks something like this:
Info Pages Print (Merged Cell Header Row) Title YES Implementation NO <blank row> Agendas Print (Another Merged Cell Header Row) Agenda1 - FORMULA NAME1 YES Agenda2 - FORMULA NAME2 NO Agenda3 - FORMULA NAME3 NO ... thru Agenda7 Other Print (Merged Cell Header Row) Other1 - Formula Name NO Other2 - NO Other3 - NO
My workbook has worksheets with names: Title, Implementation, Agenda1, Agenda2, Agenda3,...Other1, Other2, Other3
I want to select all of them that have the YES to Print and then send them to my printer.
I tried recording a macro but I am keep on getting an error. I need a macro which will print the selection of A1:D28 on a worksheet called Invoice. The print needs to be scaled at 165% of its normal size. i need it to be normal margins and if possible any printer.
