Using Excel 2003. I haven't been able to figure out how to program this
using commands or keystrokes >

1. Select Print / Properties. Set output method to Store, acknowledge
message if it is being changed, and select User Inbox 3 (which already has my
name).

2. At same time, set Print Style to 2-sided Printing.

3. Then select the OK button so you go back to the Print box.

I can do this stuff in default for all documents I generate, but I want to
be able to attach this to a macro button on my Personal template for all the
documents I get from others. Putting a macro on a button is not the problem
- it is the programming of the macro to do 1, 2 and 3 that is the problem

Try to record a macro while setting the printing preference (menu Tools,
Macro, Record a new Macro: choose the Personal Workbook as storage for the
macro). Then with ALT + F11 you can open di Visual Basic Editor and check
and modify the code you recorded.

(I'm not sure of names of menus, options and commands, because
translating from the Italian version of Excel...)

Hope I helped you.


Thanks in advance for your feedback.
