Hide a CELL (not entire row or column) when printing
Hi all,
I love Ron De Bruins examples at http://www.rondebruin.nl/print.htm. It shows you how not print a row or column even though it is visible on screen. However does anyone know how not to print a CELL only? Thanks |

You can make the font color the same as the background color of that cell
See the example code on the same page http://www.rondebruin.nl/print.htm#Hide See the part Make the Font white of a range -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "shapiro" wrote in message ...

Hi
I have not tried this, but you could if there is more than one cell to hide create a range name, select the individual cells, by hold down the Ctrl key while selecting the cells with a mouse. Once you have the range, record a macro to change the cell colour to say white or whatever the cell background is and use a Workbook_BeforePrint Macro to call the macro you have just recorded. You will then need a Before_save Macro to change back the font colour. Alternatively, If you do not want to show My Pay in Cell b2 you can put the value in a range Name. Choose Insert, Name, Define In the Name Box Type My_Pay (no spaces) and in the range box type =1000000 and change the formulas to the range Name.

Oh... I did not realize that the solution was in the "Font white of a range"
section. It works like a charm. Thanks "Ron de Bruin" wrote: You can make the font color the same as the background color of that cell See the example code on the same page http://www.rondebruin.nl/print.htm#Hide |

Thanks for info. But I guess I am not VBA savvy.
