I don't think Jim saw that .Select lurking at the end of that second line:

Dim LastR as long
LastR = Cells(Rows.Count, "P").End(xlUp).Row '<--changed to row
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "A1:P" & LastR

Well, it certainly looks like it should work, but Excel doesn't like it. It
gtes hung up in the same place. What could it be?

Try this...

This snippet of code always fails on the ActiveSheet line

Dim LastR
LastR = Cells(Rows.Count, "P").End(xlUp).Select
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:LastR"


What is wrong? I am just trying to find the last used cell in Column P, and
then set the Print Area as A1 to the last row in Column P that is used.

Argh!!
