    Printer macro

    Hello Everyone:

    I am trying to write a macro that will be linked to a button. When you click the button the printer dialog box will appear, printing a different sheet. The user should be able to select to change the number of copies printed etc. and then click “ok” and the macro should return to the first sheet. The problem I have is that after the printer dialog box opens. I cannot change back to the first sheet. And allow the user to make changes to the print options?

    Any Ideas?

    Thanks

    Art W.

    i am not sure that i really understand what you want to do
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    The "Print Dialog Box" opens in modal mode. Till the time it is open, I am afraid, you cannot navigate to any other sheets. What I would recommend is to finish printing and then navigate to the next sheet.

    Hope I have understood your query correctly?
