Default Adding files to a print queue

Dim sh as Worksheet
Dim rng as Range
Dim bk as Workbook
Dim cell as Range
set sh = Workbooks("List.xls").Worksheets("Sheet1")

set rng = sh.Range(sh.Cells(1,1),sh.Cells(1,1).End(xldown))

for each cell in rng
set bk = Workbooks.Open(cell.name)
' bk is now the activeworkbook, so run you macro
' macro that prints
bk.close Savechanges:=False
Next

Hello, I have end users who have to print a lot of contracts through

excel.
What they are wanting to do is add the contracts to a sort of print queue.
(that way they can print all files at once) My thought is to have a

seperate
file (based on the users name) updated anytime the user wants to add the

file
to the queue. In the file would just be a list of file names underneath

the
"A" Column. Then, when the user wants to print from the queue they would

be
able to hit one button and all the files in the queue would be sent to the
printer. I have a macro that I would want it to run since it prints out

the
necessary pages from each file. So my questions a Can VBA select and

print
files from a list of names from one spreadsheet and then loop through each
name/file and print in order with running my "finalize" macro?

Thanks for any given help!
