Starting a Macro when Command is Executed?

For example, could I set up a macro that saves the file to automatically run whenever I print? -- Losse ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Losse's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=24813 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=386133 |

You can trap events and fire your macro from there. For instance, there is a
BeforePrint event. See http://www.cpearson.com/excel/events.htm, it says Excel97 but it is still valid. -- HTH Bob Phillips "Losse" wrote in message ...

No it would be something like

Thank you. Is there also an event that happens before a macro is run or the macro screen is selected? -- Losse ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Losse's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=24813 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=386133 |
