(The cell is linked to another program which will write a 1 into the cell when a printout is required) Please tell me how I can achieve this all suggestions welcome |
Print a worksheet when a cell = 1
Is that link a formula to a different worksheet in a different workbook?
Or is it the result of some kind of query? A little more information may help get an answer.

Print a worksheet when a cell = 1
I have a PLC (Programmable logic Controller) writing to the spreadsheet via a
DDE link. (The PLC is controlling a batching plant) The spreadsheet is used to store alarm / recipe information. What I want is a way of printing a report on demand via the PLC hence the idea of writing a 1 in a cell to trigger a print routine. Hope this gives you a better understanding of what I am trying to do. "Dave Peterson" wrote: Is that link a formula to a different worksheet in a different workbook?

I don't know anything about DDE links. Maybe someone else will jump in.
