"Print this" link in a cell??
Can you put a link in a cell, that when you click on it, it will print the current worksheet? How?

You could use the Workbook_SheetSelectionChange event if you want this to
happen on all worksheets. If it is a specific sheet then use the worksheet_SelectionChange event behind the sheet concerned... Code like that below will work (Using selection on A1 on any worksheet) Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range) If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Sh.PrintOut End If End Sub -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England www.nickhodge.co.uk HIS "Ltat42a" wrote in message ...

Hi Ltat42a,
Nick's code represents a worksheet event procedure and should be pasted into the worksheets's code module (not a standard module and not the workbook's ThisWorkbook module): ******************************************* Right-click the worksheet's tab Select 'View Code' from the menu and paste the code. Alt-F11 to return to Excel. ******************************************* For information on Event procedures, see Chip Pearson at: http://www.cpearson.com/excel/events.htm For introductory information on macros see David McRitchie's 'Getting Started With Macros And User Defined Functions' at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm --- Regards, Norman "Ltat42a" wrote in message ...

Hi Nick,
My apologies- I mis-read the macro header. Thank you for the correction. --- Regards, Norman "Nick Hodge" wrote in message ... Norman Thanks for jumping in...on the contrary however. I have used, in the example, the 'workbook' version of the SheetSelectionChange event to fire on every sheet in the workbook. Therefore the actual example *should* be placed in the ThisWorkbook code module, unless, as I pointed out, the code was just required on one sheet. If this is the case, then follow Norman's advice and use the Worksheet Selection_Change event behind the required worksheet -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England www.nickhodge.co.uk HIS "Norman Jones" wrote in message ...

I'm new to the Visual basic editor. I'm not understanding what all is involved to get this to work. In cell A1, I typed "Print This" (no quotes). I right clicked on the worksheet tab, pasted the code you provided......and nothing. Am I missing some steps?
