Setting Print Area
 

Hi,
Is it possible to set/reset the print area according to a cell value?

e.g.:-
if A1 = 1 then set print area to B1:B10
if A1 = 2 then set print area to C1:C10
etc.
TIA
Mike

Right click sheet tabview codeinsert this. Now when you change cell a1 the
column range will print automatically. After testing change printpreview to
printout

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address < "$A$1" Then Exit Sub
Range(Cells(1, Target), Cells(10, Target)).PrintPreview
End Sub

You could do this

Alt+f11 to open VB editor. Double click 'This workbook' and paste this in

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = 1 Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$B$1:$B$10"
ElseIf Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = 2 Then
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$C$1:$C$10"
Else
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

for one column to the right
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address < "$A$1" Then Exit Sub
Range(Cells(1, Target+1), Cells(10, Target+1)).PrintPreview
End Sub
