I don't think it's the hidden rows that are causing the trouble. (I've never
seen excel behave that way.)

But if you have page breaks in those hidden rows, the page breaks will still be
processed.

Could that be the problem?

My solution is to either remove the page breaks, or to copy the visible cells to
a new sheet and print from there--or even take a picture of what I want and
print that picture.

Hi,

I have a spreadsheet in which a macro runs and 'hides' any empty rows.

In the spreadsheet it is likely that first 100 rows wont be hidden, the
nxt 200 will be and the following 10 will be afterthat.

what i have noticed is that when the rows are hidden even though they
dont print they still appear to have been 'used' in the print preview
so if i try and print the document out the first section prints but the
bottom 10 ten lines dont print till page 4 (with blank pages before
these).

What i want is for the bottom section to be printed straight after the
top visible rows i.e. by totally ignoring the hidden rows.

how can i do this in vba or any other settings?
