Recording Page Setup macro
Greeting all:
I have a way of making the simplest things difficult. I am trying to record a macro to format a worksheet through Page Setup. From a formatting standpoint everything is working fine, but the formatted sheet is legal size paper that must be fed through my printer's bypass tray and the process of selecting "options" in "page setup" and selecting the bypass tray in the print driver window does not record (presumably because the print driver is not part of Excel). Is there a VBA function that I can manually enter into the recorded macro to accomplish this? Scott |

Hi Scott,
As you wrote, the print driver is not part of Excel. So why don't you add a new printer (from control panel) with setting bypass tray, and choose it via macro? -- Kind Regards Colo /_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ Colo of 'The Road of The Cell Masters' :) URL:http://www.interq.or.jp/sun/puremis/...astersLink.htm /_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ "Scott" wrote in message ...

The only way I know of is to install up the same printer twice with
different names and different default paper trays. I've never tried this personally but others have reprted success. -- Vasant "Scott" wrote in message ...
