Making writing not print.
 
I am wondering if there is a way to have certain text in excel only
show up on the screen, and not when your print out the sheet.

i.e.

On the screen:

Type (double click for a drop down)


When printed:

Type

One way is to put the text in a lable. Than set the PrintObject property to
false.

From within vba i am assuming you mean?

By the way, I didn't know what you meant at first, and I went online
and searched for PrintObject and it turns out I can also make a text
box visible but not printable. I would prefer your approach because of
the risk of someone adding rows or moving the text box. So if you
could give me more info on what u mean that would be great.
