Does anyone have a technique for being able to set a specified print area for excel (across multiple tabs) from the fex side? The user does NOT want to use a template for various reasons. Does anyone know of a way that this can be done without a template/macro?

We are using WF release 7.6.9 on a AIX platform.

Thanks for any help,

Debbie / Fidelity

This cannot be done without a macro or template.

This article discusses how to do it with a macro: Developer Center > Tips and Techniques > Creating Excel Macros

quote:
As an example of a VB Script, the following sets the print area and then sets up the print options in Excel to fit the output on a single page in landscape print format.

Thanks very much for the response. I suspected that this was the case, but wanted to explore all avenues.

Thanks again,
