Hi,

I am looking for a macro or a solution to select the entire work sheet except the print area.

Thanks,

LenPL

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Try this:
Code:
Sub CtrlA_Excl_PrtA()
    If ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "" Then Exit Sub
    Set PrtA = Range(ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea)
    Set SelA = Range(Cells(1, PrtA.Column + PrtA.Columns.Count), Cells(1, Columns.Count)).EntireColumn
    Set SelA = Application.Union(SelA, Range(PrtA.Row + PrtA.Rows.Count & ":" & Rows.Count))
    If PrtA.Column > 1 Then Set SelA = Application.Union(SelA, Range("A1", Cells(1, PrtA.Column - 1)).EntireColumn)
    If PrtA.Row > 1 Then Set SelA = Application.Union(SelA, Range("1:" & PrtA.Row - 1))
    SelA.Select
End Sub

Perfect! Thank you Tetra.
I can't believe this isn't a standard feature or it has been discussed on 'google'.
