I have tried to record the steps in a macro that are involved in printing a worksheet to a PDF. It recorded everything up to and including hte printer selection. However, it did not record the filename dialog box actions and beyond.
I have Adobe Acrobat 8 and Excel 2003.
I would like to know if there is a way to print several different workbooks at once but keeping my printing format which I would like to be Landscape and Fit to one page. Reason is simple as I work in a office where staff is handed in several jobs to do everyday. They finish the jobs and log all the info on the database. I log on to database and put all their daily diaries and because it is all over the place I have to go in each file and set printing preferences which takes an hour in the morning and hour in the evening. I could do with some sort of automation where all diaries are automatically printed in Landscape and Fit on one page.

I have a workbook that has a print button on it. The print button macro prints many tabs on the workbook. But, on ONE of the tabs, it inserts information from a range of cells, prints, goes to the next cell in that range and prints, until complete.
The problem I'm having is this: When there is only ONE cell in that range that has information in it, it gets stuck in a continuous loop and prints a ton of blank pages.
Here's my code for this portion of the macro:
I have a table which I wish to print out, however I wish to print two copies of this table, one with only the rows which contain "AM" in column X, and one with the rows that contain "PM" in column X. There is also another complication in that several rows on the spreadsheet, containing data in column X, are hidden. The print range is everything between A3 & AG120.
I tried using a filter but found it unhid all the hidden rows and printed them out which I don't want.
I am working with excel 2003. I get a workbook sent to me via Email that has 12 tabs on it and each tab has to be printed out. The fastest way that I know, to get this done is start with tab 1; hit alt+f, u, alt+f, enter, Ctrl+P, enter, Ctrl+page down ( to move to next tab and do it all over again), each tab is a slightly different width so I am constantly have to use "Fit to Page" but each tab will fit on one page easy.
I was wondering can I use a key stroke macro to print this workbook. I actually get 5 workbooks like this every night, it does not really take that long, maybe I am just being lazy, I was thinking that I might be able to use a key stroke macro and then name it for what ever workbook it works with (workbook 1 print ) but I don't no if this will work or if there is an easier way to get the printing job done.
I can't upload the workbook but I could create a simple say 5 tab workbook that has no data in but has same formatting and upload that if you need to see what I am doing.
I need a macro for printing a document, Could anyone supply me with the macro. And how to acivate it and sve in the sheet
View 5 Replies View RelatedI run a scorecard for 150 projects and how to write a macro the would scroll through my drop down list with all my projects and print them to a PDF with a certain file name. When a project number is selected, my scorecard will auto populate with the information. Currently I do them 1 at a time.
My drop down list is in cell C4 and my validation list is in R1:R150. My tab name is CoverSheets.
There's a spreadsheet containing 2 Sheets, lets'say Sheet1 and Sheet2.
The first one, Sheet1 contains raw data (imported from a database through SQL), hence there are no formulas in it.
This sheet contains among several columns, this one labeled "PC" (column G), non-sequenced numbers only (ex., 14014, 14015, 14019, 14113)
The second sheet is used for retrieving some other information from Sheet1, based on PC number, which is input on cell Sheet2!P15, for authorization purposes only.
The fact is that I have to input every PC number, one by one (14014, 14015, 14019...) then send it to printer one by one by every PC number entered.
In this example, type 14014 in P15, then print button; again, 14015, then print button, and so on.
I'm wondering if there's any way, by selecting some (not all) PC numbers from Sheet1 (even when filter is set on), to have these different pages (Sheet2) printed automatically after pressing this macro button.
An extra bonus would be the possibility (other macro, possibly) to generate one or several pdf files of this selection.
i am after a macro that will print multiple sheets in hit of a button, the ranges are from A1 to the last row of the data. Now there are sometimes cells which have no data, so was not sure if this will be a problem. At momenet it take me at least couple of minutes to print everything out.

View 2 Replies View RelatedPrint sheet 1, 3 and 7. Always print sheet 1, however only print sheet 3 and 7 if there in these sheets are values in the cells from row 8 and below.
(If that is to complicated it would be ok if the condition for printing sheet 3 and 7 is that there's a value in e.g. cell A8.)
I managed to create this script that allows me to print sheets 1, 3 and 7, however I can't seem to find out where to put the if-statement (I suppose that's how you do it?). Here's the script i created so far:
Iam an accoutant and have been given a task we have a workbook we use monthly that has about 50 columns, we have to go in and hide all the columns we do not need to print so I am wanting to create one that will hide the neccessary columsn print, unhide the columns and then hide the neccessary ones and print and so and so on.
I tried to do this by recording a macro and it sent me to visual basic and now says ithas all of these errors and i dont know how to fix them i need to do this porbabaly for about 20 different hiding and printing combinations. I am going to attach the errors i am getting when i try to debug in visual basic this is just for the first combination so i guess i need to know how to do debug for the rest of the combiantions. I am also hiding the entire column i dont know if i should be or not. I am attaching the file that i am doing the hising in as well. So like for the first i need to only keep column a,b,c (always unhidden) and then g for this time, print, unhide, then again column a,b,c active, then column u print and then unhide and on and on.
I've got a rather involved macro that's running kind of slowly, and I would appreciate any help I can get speeding it up. It's in two parts; the first is to create and email a report, the second is to format so it's pretty for printing. The full codes for both routines is pasted below.
The email part I developed first and it runs pretty quickly. Afterwards, I added the second macro, which is called halfway through the first.
Stepping through the code in the second macro, the problem I see is in this section, the setup for setting the heighth of merged cells in the report:
is there a macro code that will autmatically determine the end of your page and adjust your page breaks accordingly?

Range("a1:d1", Range("a65536:d65536").End(xlUp)).Select

Any usual information will be highly appreciated... FYI.. I am new to Excel VBA programming.
I programmed a simple macro (attached to a button) that scan the lines in the sheet and uses the function: Cells(y,2).EntireRow.Hide=TRUE (in order to hide certain lines). Usually, It runs fast without problem. But when I print out an area of the sheet, it cause the macro to slow down substantially. (when it runs again). In order to fix that , I had to close the file and reopen it again ( and not print out)
View 7 Replies View RelatedI made six macros, then I inserted a row at "A1" and created a box icon for each and assigned the macros. I went to the properties and told them not to print. Now I set my print range from "A3: J10" and they still print and show up in the print preview also.

I have a worksheet that changes in length. There is a formula that calculates how many pages the sheet will be.

I am automating a paper form that collects information from 7 other paper forms and then prints out the results. I have created an excel spreadsheet to do this but I am having problems getting the printed output to match the print preview.
I have inserted an image of the form into the sheet header and aligned the cells on the sheet so that the information is in the correct position when previewed in "print preview".
The problem is that, although this will print correctly on the machine I created it on, it is misaligned on any other machine I have tried.
