Default Printing a form from Excel

Modification of code originally posted by
"Orlando Magalhães Filho"

Modified to capture just the userform (not the whole window).

Place this code in a General/Standard Module:

Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, _
ByVal bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)

'Public Const VK_SNAPSHOT = &H2C

Public Const VK_SNAPSHOT = 44
Public Const VK_LMENU = 164
Public Const KEYEVENTF_KEYUP = 2
Public Const KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY = 1


Sub Test()
UserForm1.Show
End Sub


In the userform module:




Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
' keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, 0, 0
DoEvents
keybd_event VK_LMENU, 0, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY, 0 ' key down
keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY, 0
keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY + _
KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0
keybd_event VK_LMENU, 0, KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY + _
KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0
DoEvents
Workbooks.Add
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Bitmap", Link:=False,
DisplayAsIcon:=False
Activesheet.PageSetup.Orientation = xlLandscape
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub

Hi,

I have created a form in an excel macro, and I have to print it. The

problem
is that the only command able to do it is

form.PrintOut

but no configuration is available. What I need is to print the form in a
landscape configurated page, for example.

Could anybody, please, help me?

Thanks a lot in advance.

SONIA.
