Default Change Default Print Options On The Fly?

Thankyou, that's brilliant, does exactly what I want, and with your added bit
of info and the response from NickHK's further question, I've managed to
reuse the code in other places within my project. (I have also advised an
friend who was happy to find there was an easier way!)

Thankyou once again

Hello, through code I have made Excel print a particular worksheet
(defined
range)

Is there any way that I can make the windows printer dialogue box appear.
(I would like to select which printer it prints to each time)

I believe I could work out how to do this, given time.

However I would like to be able to specify that "2" appears in the number
of
copies box.

(One copy for the customer to takeaway and a hard copy for my records)

TIA for any help! I'm in a bit of a pickle clicking the print button
twice,
and then maybe a third time to just confirm. :-)

You can use

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show ,,,2

The commas are to indicate the required parameter position from the
following list

range_num, from, to, copies, draft, preview, print_what, color, feed,
quality, y_resolution, selection, printer_text, print_to_file, collate

So for 5 copies end with ,,,5
