I am setting up a formatted sheet to be a purchase order and am placing
several shape objects and such.
It would be helpful to know the maximum number of pixel that will fit onto
the printed page; of course depending on the page setup... paper size,
margins, etc.
Somewhere Excel decides whether a column will fit in the page area or print
on another page.
Is there an object that exposed this value? or even the paper size in
inches?
I tried to calculated it myself with
numOfChars = (Application.InchesToPoints(8.5) - (leftmrgn + rightmrgn))
/ (Application.StandardFontSize)
which incorrectly yields the value 46.1, when I can actually fit much more.
Also the .StandardFontSize is calculated on the present fonts "0" char. Is
it possible to find that number.
GOALS:
to be able to place items relative to the right margin
to be able to determine how many formatted columns I can fit on the page;
eg. Columns("A:E").width = pagesize / 5
any help would be appreciated
