Hi Stacey,

That latest code should not deselect any sheets.
If you want you can email me, off newsgroup, your workbook and I will
have a look see.

Cheers
Andy

Thanks. That did make it update prior to printing, but now I appear to have
another problem.

Now the problem I have is that when I select 4 of the worksheets and then
hit Print or Print preview, it deselects the last 3 worksheets and only
updates and prints the 1st one. Then after using the print utilitiy the 3
additional worksheets are no longer highlighted and active. I'm not sure
what's causing this, but I need to be able to update and print all of the
selected worksheets at once.

This should do it just prior to printing.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)

Dim WS As Worksheet
For Each WS In Worksheets
WS.PageSetup.RightHeader = "&20&B" & _
Format(Worksheets("Time Period Info").Range("B3").Value)

Next WS
End Sub

Cheers

I'm not sure I'm entering the information quite right. I left the
portion at the top that read "BeforePrint" but it wouldn't work when I
left it there. However, when I deleted it, the macro will no longer
update. What do you suggest?

Hi Stacey,

Good to see you worked out the combined cell problem.

Only one sheet is active even if you have multiple sheets selected.

This revision to your code should process all sheets.

Sub X()
Dim WS As Worksheet

For Each WS In Worksheets
WS.PageSetup.RightHeader = _
"&20&B" & _
Format(Worksheets("Time Period Info").Range("B3").Value)
Next WS
End Sub

Cheers
Andy

Okay, last time, I promise. I often will select 4 different worksheets
and have them all print at once, and I thought this VBA macro would
update all of them (because they are all active sheets) at the same
time. But for some reason its JUST updating the very first one with the
header info. Do you know why and how I could fix it?

Thanks again for the help!

Hi,

You can add formatting codes to change font size and bold.

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = _
"&20&B" & Format(Worksheets("Time Period Info").Range("B3").Value)

Where &B Turns bold printing on or off and &nn Prints the characters
that follow in the specified font size. Use a two-digit number to
specify a size in points.

Use the Help and serach for 'Formatting Codes for Headers and Footers'
for a comprehensive list.

Cheers

Hello,
I wanted to reference a cell value in my spreadsheet header and found
out how to do that using this function:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim WS As Worksheet
For Each WS In Worksheets
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = _
Format(Worksheets("Time Period Info").Range("B3").Value)
Next WS
End Sub
However, this leaves my text for this portion of the header at Arial
Size 10 font Regular. I would like it Arial Size 20 Bold. How can I
set it to this format of text?
Thanks for the help!
