Default How do I not print or count pages? Excel97

Let's forget this one Tom... would like your help with Pages Count; Plan B
though.

Thanks again Tom
These are templates that once completed are overwritten and reused as
".xls"es. I'm trying to dummy proof them and this seems to be my last
stumbling block. I think I can change "Page of Pages" to "Page of _____s",
while not pretty it is functional. Thanks for the attempt. Lou

May need additional temperatures on different calibration cycles.
I tried hiding P&Q1 before posting question; didn't work.

How about code that adds right heading "Page[&Page] of Pages[&Pages]" that
doesn't count pages where Range("B15")=""?
Ariel Narrow
8 pt
I can add a print button to each sheet that calls the print proceedure ([ALL
PAGES where Range("B15")""] need help with that too) Public function? In
module or "ThisWorkbook"?

TIA again Lou

There isn't anyway to set the printarea to something that will indicate not
to print the worksheet. Perhaps you can just clear the page

Else
'ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$P$1:$Q$1"
Activesheet.Range("1:65536").Delete
Activesheet.usedrange
end if


then maybe Excel won't try to print it. (I don't know, haven't tested it in
this scenario).

Another approach would be to group the pages you actually want to print.

Thanks for the reply Tom but I don't understand your answer.
If Range("AJ54") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AY$92"
ElseIf Range("S54") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AH$92"
Prints 6 or 4 pages (landscape) respectively. Then 2, 3, 2, and the final
ElseIf 1 page. that is GREAT.
Else
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$P$1:$Q$1"
Is what I need help with.
It prints 2 cells (empty, call me a tree hugger). What I need is a method

to
not include this page is total page count if Range("B15") = <. Since I'm

not
wasting paper I really don't care whether the page prints, but if it I

don't
think it can be excluded from the total page count if it prints.

Excel prints a rectanglar area. To get around that you would have to

print
each page on the sheet individually. an alternative would be to use

layout
sheets where you use formulas or code to place your data in the smallest
rectangular area and print that.

This ALMOST works. I use File, Print, Entire workbook with a "Page of
Pages"
header. It contains a cover page and 4 survey sheets(temperatures)

with
zero
to 6 pages depending on survey time and number of thermocouples. How

do I
not
print unused sheets? How do I adjust "Pages" to not count sheets

without
an
entry in Range("B15")?
This prints blank pages for unused sheets and is 5 pages minimum.

Actually
2
pages (cover and 1 temperature with 12 T/Cs under 1 hr 16 min) is more
common.

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Range("F9").Select
Selection = InputBox(Prompt:="[Type & Enter]" & Chr(13) & "The

row
number to the left of the Summary Start Time.", Title:="SUMMARY START
TIME",
Default:=Range("F9"))
Range("A15:AY92").Select
Selection.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
If Range("B15") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = "&""Arial
Narrow,Regular""&8Page
&P of &N"
Else
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = ""
End If
If Range("AJ54") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AY$92"
ElseIf Range("S54") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AH$92"
ElseIf Range("B54") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$Q$92"
ElseIf Range("AJ15") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AY$53"
ElseIf Range("S15") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$AH$53"
ElseIf Range("B15") < "" Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$Q$53"
Else
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$P$1:$Q$1"
End If
n = Range("F9")
Cells(n, 1).Select
Selection.Name = "TUS4SmmryRw"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,

Scenarios:=True
End Sub

Thanks in advance; Lou
