Default Word & Excel - Nice question

Thanks Harlan & Tony

Tony,

this would let Excel print to pdf, how do I get my pages from word in there?

Is there any sample code for that?

Thanks

I think you can do this direct, page by page, with VBA to a single PDF
using PDFCreator - see http://www.excelguru.ca/node/21 for more details.

Scenario:

Word document from page 1 to 40.

Excel File with Sheets 1 to 40 (so there are 40 sheets)

What they want is each sheet to be printed alternatively after the pages
in word.

So, the final document, to be printed, they want, Page 1(1st page of
word), page 2 (to be the 1st sheet in Excel file), page 3 (2nd page in
word), page 4 (2nd sheet in excel) and so on.

They want to render this into a pdf document (print to a pdf file).

What they do now:

1) Print word document (40 pages)
2) Print Excel file (40 pages)
3) Scan each page (80 pages)
4) Arrange alternatively
5) Print to pdf.

I asked them why can't they just cut & paste the excel sheet in word,
they said, it doesn't fit in the manner the want and sometimes the table
cells spill to the second page, and they spend a lot of time tweaking and
by the time they do that for 40 sheets its way too long.

Is there a way to automate this? I'm sure there has to be a better way.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thank You
