Default Hide shapes (buttons) before printing

So I now have shapes that acts as buttons on my worksheet thanks to help I
got from this group.

Now I want to hide those shapes before I print out the report. So I plan to
add a macro, called from yet another button, to do a print preview.

I'd like to hide those buttons before I do the print preview and then unhide
them at the end of that macro.

From what I am begining to understand about the Exel object model, I suspect
there is a collection of shapes on the workseeht and that each shape in that
collection has a 'visible' property. Since all od the shaps on this
worksheet are button, I will want to hide all of them. And, I may even get
button happy and add more shapes.

So my question is:

How do I hide/unhide all the shapes on a worksheet?

Thanks,
Ken Loomis
