print defaults
My version of Excel 2003 has a print default of "Print entire workbook". I
tried to create Book.xlt and Sheet.xlt with "Active Sheet", but it didn't work. Don Fritz |

I don't think I've ever seen Excel default to anything other than Selected
Sheet(s). Very strange. Does it happen in safe mode? -- Jim "Don" wrote in message ... | My version of Excel 2003 has a print default of "Print entire workbook". I | tried to create Book.xlt and Sheet.xlt with "Active Sheet", but it didn't | work. | Don Fritz |

In Safe mode, there are no printers available to test. I've started new
workbooks, and old spreedsheets, and all default to print all. -- Don Fritz "Jim Rech" wrote: I don't think I've ever seen Excel default to anything other than Selected Sheet(s). Very strange.

Hi Don,
My excel 2003 install does the same thing. It prints the entire workbook when I just use the print shortcut button. Though when I choose FilePrint the default is set to Current Sheet and only prints the current sheet. I haven't been able to find out to this date how to fix this issue. If you have resolved this, could you let me know? Cheers, Chris. "Don" wrote: In Safe mode, there are no printers available to test.

Mine defaults to entire workbook both with the printshortcut and the file
print. I am hoping for a quick fix, but if that fails, I will have to try a re-install. I read a while back that someone wanted to change the default to entire workbook, but was told that it wasn't possible?????????????? -- Don Fritz "Chris" wrote: Hi Don, My excel 2003 install does the same thing.

It has been awhile since I had to go to safe mode. My PC is networked and
the only Safe mode that works is with network options. In safe mode selecting file-print gives you the message "no printer selected". Going to add printer, you get the message "print spooler not available in safe mode". -- Don Fritz "Jim Rech" wrote: Strange.

I opened excel in excel safe mode. The normal defaults were present-3 sheets
and print active sheet. I saved the open book as Book.xlt and Sheet.xlt.

Help me here. Forget about templates. If you start Excel in safe mode and
open an existing multi-sheet workbook and open the Print dialog does it have "Active sheet(s)" selected?

Excellent. There is little doubt then that there is an add-in interfering.
In safe mode none will load so that's why you don't have the issue there. Please uncheck everything in Tools, Add-ins. Also, look in both of your XLSTART folders for any files and move them elsewhere temporarily (with Excel closed). (One XLSTART is under the Office install folder and the other is under Documents and Settings.) If these things do not help look for Com Add-ins. That item may be in your Tools menu. If it's not you can add it via View, Toolbars, Customize, Commands, Tools in the left list, about 60% down in the right. Drag it to the Tools menu. Then check it If it's not one of these things I don't know what it could be. -- Jim "Don" wrote in message ... | In Safe mode the print default is "active sheet".

I unchecked everthing in tools, add-ins, and one add-in returns (Docudeck PDF).
If this is the add-in that is causing my problem, I will have to live with it. Removing this add-in would cause more work then leaving it.

Read all replies to my post, and you will probably discover that an add-in is
causing your problem. So the answer for those that want to print all sheets may to add an add-in? -- Don Fritz "Chris" wrote: Hi Don, My excel 2003 install does the same thing.
