Default Printing only Rows with Visible Data

Well maybe....it page 2 on the print preview blank or does it have something
on it? How many pages is the print preview?

Hi Carla, thanks for the response. Nope, there is not formatting in the
cell. If you try like just keying anything on cell b5. then scroll down to
c200 and just type in the formula of "=if(isblank(a200),"",b200-a200)".
since there's no data in a200, c200 will bring back a value of " ". then try
print preview, it'll give you more than one page to print, which I'm guessing
is because you've got a formula on C200.

Any help?

Your data should automatically only print visible data....do you have
formatting in the cells that are empty that are printing? ie...are your
cells in color or have an outline? if they do, they will print regardless of
data...so, just unformat them and you shoud be good to go.

Hopefully helpful,

Hello. My question is, let's say I have columns A-B unprotected, so users can
drop the current month's report. Column C is protected and has an if formula
to check if A is empty, " ", else to get B less A. The report that will be
dropped every month on Columns A-B may be longer (in rows) or shorter than
the previous month. So I copy-pasted the formula in Column C down to C200,
which is just an estimate. With this template, I did a print and it's
actually printing up to cell C200, I'm assuming because there is a formula in
there. What I am hoping to do is to print only the rows with visible data.
So if Col A-B is only up to row 50, just to print up to that row. Without
having to select a print area everytime, is there a way to automate the
process that when I am printing the report only the visible data will be
printed?

thank you.
