How do I set a userform to print in landscape mode? .pagesetup doesn't apply
to forms...

Maybe capture a picture of it, put it on a worksheet and print the worksheet

Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, _
ByVal bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)

'Public Const VK_SNAPSHOT = &H2C

Public Const VK_SNAPSHOT = 44
Public Const VK_LMENU = 164
Public Const KEYEVENTF_KEYUP = 2
Public Const KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY = 1


Sub Test()
UserForm1.Show
End Sub


In the userform module:




Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
' keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, 0, 0
DoEvents
keybd_event VK_LMENU, 0, _
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY, 0 ' key down
keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, _
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY, 0
keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, _
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY + KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0
keybd_event VK_LMENU, 0, _
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY + KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0
DoEvents
Workbooks.Add
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Bitmap", _
Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub
 
Thanks Tom. That worked pretty slick. I still had to set the print properties
of the new workbook, but that's easy enough.

MS needs to resolve this, there is no reason print options can't apply to
forms.
