I doubt if there is a way to do that.
Maybe you should only print 25 to 50 bills at a time.

:) Hello!!
I have written a Macro in VBA to print Invoices with data
from an Excel Worksheet. But I have about 250 Bills to print. Could someone
tell me how I can include a few more lines of code in my Macro that will
enable pauses in the printing, at a keystroke ?!
I would very much appreciate a solution that is not very difficult !!

Thank You !!
Vijay

Hello Vijay,

This macro may help you. You need to be running Excel 2002 or above.
