hi
that would depend on what you call selecting. i assume that you want more
than 1 cell selected.....so.....
If Selection.Cells.Count = 1 Then
MsgBox("you have selected only 1 cell. need more. process terminated.")
Exit Sub
End If
Selection.CopyPicture...etc..etc

you may have to decide how much is enough?????
i see a some gray here ie what is "entire area".

Yeah, that'll work. As long as not just the active cell is selected
that should be enough.

Thanks. I'll give it a try.

I selected an area on the screen and then did a record macro. Here's
what I obtained as a script:

Sub CopyQuotefallToBitmap()
'
Selection.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
End Sub

Is there a way for Excel to detect when no range has been selected and
to advise the user they need to select a range (always starting at B4,
though entire area after that can differ somewhat) and then the script
can proceed to the rest of the "Selection.CopyPicture..." scripts
above after that?

Thanks! :oD
