Hello,

I have a workbook with multiple sheets and I would like to print this
workbook at the click of a button. Each sheet has a heading in cell c1, c2 is
blank and then a table begins in c3. Each table varies from 1 to 9 columns.
There is data in cols and and b that is not to be printed, but I would prefer
the empty columns still to appear.

Things get further complicated by the fact that some tables have a small
number of rows and some have up to one hundred. I need Excel to insert
"appropriate" page breaks so if there is space for the first three tables
print on a single sheet, the page break should come after table three.

Is this doable, I have been looking around but there seem to be a number of
suggestions but page breaks don't get a mention.

Try this in your duplicate copy of your workbook.

Just press Alt+V+P which will bring you in Page Break Preview Mode. Now you
can see lots of blue lines. Just place the cursor in A1 cell and

For 2003
Press Alt+F+T+S

For 2007
Press Alt+P+R+S

Now you can notice that the A1 cell will have a white background and
surrounded by blue borders.

Just hold the Cntrl button and select the Range cells which are all needs to
be printed. Dont take your finger from Cntrl button until your selection
process is over. After selecting the desired cells which needs to be printed

Setting Print Area Suggestion:
If you want to set A5 to A15 as first page print Area then select it as usual.
If you want to set the B5 to C15 as second page print area then while
holding the cntrl key dont select it as B5 to B15 and C5 to C15, Select it
as B5:C15 then only excel will know that B5:C15 is the Second page Print
Area. If you Select B5 to B15 and C5 to C15 then excel treat B5:B15 is the
Second Page Print Area and C5 to C15 is Third Page Print Area Like that.

Once all your selection process is over then press the below keys which is
suitable for you.

For Excel 2003
Press Alt+F+T+S

For Excel 2007
Press Alt+P+R+S

Now press Alt+V+N to return to Normal Mode (common for 2003 & 2007)

Press the below for print preview

For Excel 2003
Alt+F+V

For Excel 2007
Cntrl+F2

Hope this is what you have asked for€¦
