I am trying to have a file print in legal size if I have 56 lines filled in
otherwise print in regular letter size. Does anyone know how to write this
in VBA. help would be appreciated. thanks

If Row - nr 56 Then ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperLegal
xlPaperLetter Letter (8-1/2 in. x 11 in.)
xlPaperA4 A4 (210 mm x 297 mm)

You copied and pasted?
then you have not taught your computer how to count the row numbers yet.

I guess not. The syntex error shows up on the following.
xlPaperLetter Letter (8-1/2 in. x 11 in.)
xlPaperA4 A4 (210 mm x 297 mm)

These two are only xlConstants for your information if you wish to change
the paper sizes. They should not remain in the code.

also how does the computer (and ourselves) know how many rows your print
area have? When know, adjust row_nr to suit please.

The number of rows changes hourly. Is there a way for the macro to count the
number of rows and then based on the number if 55 make it legal size.

Try this

LastRow = Cells.Find(What:="*", _
After:=Range("A1"), _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
MatchCase:=False).Row

I put both of the tips in the macro but it still did not count the number of
rows with data and make it legal size if the nbr of rows are greater than 56.
LastRow = Cells.Find(What:="*", _
After:=Range("A1"), _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
MatchCase:=False).Row
If Row - nr 46 Then ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperLegal
