hi all
when im printing a sheet the print area is automaticly set to all cells
containing formulas ,even if the formula resualt is nothing.
how can i set the print area to change automaticly and print only
cells where the formula resualt in NOT nothing ?
(i get the data to the sheet from a database, and the size of the
report is changing every time. next to the data im getting from the
data base i have the additional formulas )

thanks
Oz.

Maybe...

Can you pick out a column that always has data if that row is used?

If you can, then maybe this old post will help you (I used column A):

Insert|Name|Define
Names in workbook: Sheet1!LastRow
Use this formula
Refers to: =LOOKUP(2,1/(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$1000<""),ROW(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$1000) )

(Make that 1000 big enough to extend past the last possible row.)

Then once mo
Insert|Name|Define
Names in workbook: Sheet1!Print_Area
Use this formula
Refers to: =OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,0,0,lastRow,3)

That last 3 represents the last column to print (A:C in my example).

And change the worksheet (sheet1) if necessary (in all the places).

Alternatively, you could apply data|filter|autofilter and show only those rows
that have non-blanks. Then print that.
