PrintPreview slows Code Execution
 

Hi,

I have a workbook which contains some fairly complex subs but they run fast
enough for normal needs. However, after running a small sub that just sets
the PrintArea and does a PrintPreview , code execution becomes exceeedingly
slow.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Don

Don,

afaik: to speed up your macro

EITHER use:
worksheets(x) .DisplayAutomaticPageBreaks = False
it's a hidden property of the worksheet object
(only shows up if hidden properties are displayed in the object browser)

you dont need to repeat that..

OR use:
worksheets(x) .DisplayPageBreaks=false
you DO need to repeat that line after each print or printpreview

Hi Don,

Try setting Worksheets("MySheet").DisplayPageBreaks = False for all
worksheets affected. This stops Excel from recalculating the page breaks
each time you do something that changes them and can improve performance in
some cases.
