Steve:

Then shouldn't I be able to assign a sheet name to mysheet
having already declared that as a worksheet object?

For the last case option, the sheet name in question would
be OBA TWML (Space intentional betw A and T). So, right
after that statement, I have tried various syntax with no
luck so far.

Case OptTWMLOBA.Value
Set Printthisrange = Range("OBATWML")
Set mysheet = Worksheet("OBA TWML")

If it takes that, then I should be able to select the
sheet and/or the range itself, right? Then, if I get all
accomplished, then I can do what I need to with the print
settings.

This shouldn't have been this hard. I have a lot of other
stuff to do they may make this look like a walk in the
park. So, it is real frustrating that the learning curve
is so steep going from QPW to Excel. There wasn't a whole
lot in QPW that I couldn't do.

Bruce,

You need to substitute the actual name of the sheet in
place of MySheet.
(MySheet is just a generic). Excel is looking for the
name you have
assigned to the sheet.

You may see things like MyRange, MySheet, MyBook in
posted code. You must
always replace these with the names you are using. You
may also see
references to $A1:$G$5 in the posted code. Again you
must replace this with
the range you are using.

Remember we don't always know what your workbook looks
like (or for that
matter, what other peoples workbooks look like). So we
construct code with
generic references. Unfortunately many of the new comers
aren't familiar
with this and get caught.

Hope this helps...

Private Sub btnprint1_Click()
Dim Printthisrange
Dim mysheet As Worksheet

Select Case True
Case OptCNGOBA.Value
Set Printthisrange = Range("OBACGG")

Set Printthisrange = Range("OBADEFS")
Case OptAgaveOBA.Value
Set Printthisrange = Range("OBAAgave")

Well how do I get it to recognize "Mysheet" as a
reference?


Sheets("mysheet").Printthisrange.Select

With Sheets("MySheet").Printthisrange
.PrintTitleRows = ""
.PaperSize = xlPaperLegal
.FitToPagesWide = 1
.FitToPagesTall = 1
.Orientation = xlLandscape
End With
Unload Me
Printthisrange.Select
Printthisrange.PrintPreview
Printthisrange = "Nothing"
Range("a1").Select


End Sub
