Default Adding files to a print queue

Of course you would need to provide all the information to access the file
in each cell.

For example in A1 I would type

"C:\MyFolder\MySubFolder\Myfile.xls"

Thanks Tom,

Another question. These files will be in different folders. Would it be
better to have the "List.xls" file reference the full path and name of the
file into the cell? If so, how would I do this? Thanks.

set sh = Workbooks("List.xls").Worksheets("Sheet1")

set rng = sh.Range(sh.Cells(1,1),sh.Cells(1,1).End(xldown))

for each cell in rng
set bk = Workbooks.Open(cell.name)
' bk is now the activeworkbook, so run you macro
' macro that prints
bk.close Savechanges:=False
Next

Hello, I have end users who have to print a lot of contracts through

excel.
What they are wanting to do is add the contracts to a sort of print

queue.
(that way they can print all files at once) My thought is to have a

seperate
file (based on the users name) updated anytime the user wants to add

the
file
to the queue. In the file would just be a list of file names

underneath
the
"A" Column. Then, when the user wants to print from the queue they

would
be
able to hit one button and all the files in the queue would be sent to

the
printer. I have a macro that I would want it to run since it prints

out
the
necessary pages from each file. So my questions a Can VBA select

and
print
files from a list of names from one spreadsheet and then loop through

each
name/file and print in order with running my "finalize" macro?

Thanks for any given help!
