change the sheet name and range to your needs: just paste this code in a
blank workbbok and it should work, though.
Sub print_name()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim computername As String
computername = Environ("computername")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set ws = Worksheets("sheet1")
With ws.PageSetup
.PrintTitleRows = "$1:$1"
.Orientation = xlPortrait
.CenterHeader = "&B&12" & computername
.PrintGridlines = True
.Zoom = 100
.RightMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.4)
.LeftMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.4)
.TopMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.75)
.HeaderMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.25)
.BottomMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.5)
.RightFooter = "Page " & "&P" & " of " & "&N"
.RightHeader = "&B&12 " & Date
.PrintArea = "A1:G10"
.CenterFooter = ""
.FooterMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.3)
.CenterHorizontally = True
End With
ws.PrintPreview
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Hi Eric
You didn't mention what version of Excel you were using but here is a 32
bit
version that works under most recent version, I haven't tried it under
2007
or Vista but it works under XP
Open a standard module and paste the following code
Declare Function GetComputerName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetComputerNameA"
(ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Sub Get_Computer_Name_Ex()
Dim Comp_Name_B As String * 25
'this function seems to work differntly than most, it doesn't return
the
number of char's placed in the buffer
Ret = GetComputerName(Comp_Name_B, Len(Comp_Name_B))
'but the string is always ended with a null terminated string so we
can
use the Chr(0) function to find the end
Comp_Name = Left(Comp_Name_B, InStr(Comp_Name_B, Chr(0)))
'and return only the computer name
MsgBox Comp_Name
End Sub
hope this helps
