Hello again,

I have this macro:
Code:
Sub PrintPDF()
'
' PrintPDF Macro
'
'
    Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrinterSetup).Show
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
End Sub

If I execute the macro I get this window first:
printwindow.jpg


But if I hit Cancel (Annuler) the script goes on and print anyway.

Anyway I can prevent that?

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Try

Code:
Sub PrintPDF()
'
' PrintPDF Macro
'
'
Dim RetVal
    RetVal = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrinterSetup).Show
    If RetVal = False Then Exit Sub
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
End Sub

Would it be possible to add the generated PDF as an attachement to the default e-mail reader (in our case outlook). Also is it possible to define the e-mail subject?

Maybe this is out of the scope of Excel or what Excel can do.

I tough it was worth asking.
