Default Printing landscape and portrait

Hi,

I would like my first page on the worksheet to print landscape and the
remaining pages then to print portrait......

Also i like it when i return from print preview that i can see the dotted
outlines. If this could show the first page landscape and the rest portrait
that would be even better but thinking it may be a lil hard.

Are any of these possible??

Record a macro when you:
Change to landscape mode
print the first page of the worksheet
change to portrait
print pages 2 to xxx of the worksheet
Hide those dotted lines
(and stop the macro)

I don't think you'll see the dotted lines the way you want. I'd turn them off
if I were you.

And I'd make sure that there was a manual page break for that first page.

Tools|options|view
in xl2003 menus
is where you'd find the page breaks (dotted lines) option.

Jonno,

Another thing you can do is put your data on 2 separate sheets & group them
before print.
sheet1 - landscape & sheet2 - portrait.
Than hold the control key & click on sheet1 & sheet2 (grouping). Print
preview will show both sheets in their separate print formats. If you have
page of pages set up, you will get page 1 of xx pages for sheet1 & page 2 of
xx pages for sheet2.
