I Think This Will Challenge You

[Robert Gillard]

I receive a spreadsheet that has to have 14 page breaks (across the page
only) inserted. The data varies in length each month ( by about 10 - 20
rows) and the page breaks need to be between "sections"

The good news is that in column C (along with other text) there is the word
"Total" in a cell on its own and this relates to each section. So ideally I
want a macro that will count down 7 "Totals" and put a page break underneath
this row, then count down another 7 "Totals" all down the spreadsheet which
will result in 14 page breaks in all.

Is this do-able and if so am I asking the right news group or should I be
in Programming or macros.

Robert,

Programming is probably the most appropriate group, but what the heck.
Here's a little routine that may do it.

Sub InsertPageBreaks7()
Dim Counter As Long
Range("C1").Select
Do
If Selection = "Total" Then
TotalCounter = TotalCounter + 1
If TotalCounter = 7 Then
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.HPageBreaks.Add
Before:=ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0)
PageBreakscounter = PageBreakscounter + 1
If PageBreakscounter >= 14 Then Exit Sub
TotalCounter = 0
End If
End If
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select ' move down
Loop

End Sub

End Sub
