Print Page Shortcut

[Guest]

Is it possible to use a keyboard shortcut to print select pages? I tried to
create a macro, but the last command ("OK") in the mouseclick sequence
(File-Print-Current Page-OK) does not appear to have a keystroke equivalent.

Here's a macro to print the current page:

Sub PrintCurrentPage()
Application.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintCurrentPage
End Sub

Thank you Susan.
Unfortunately, nothing happens when I hit RUN. I tried RECORDING the
keystrokes as a macro also, and that also doesn't work when I hit RUN. My
office's IT head tried it also and it doesn't work for him. He says there
must be something else blocking it from functioning. (fyi, this is Word 2003
if that means anything). Any ideas? (And if you have the solution to make it
run, do you know how I assign a keystroke shortcut to a macro you create via
the editor versus the "record" feature?)

You must save this as a macro, that is, install it. See
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm. You can then assign it to a
toolbar button or keyboard shortcut. You do this using the Customize dialog
(see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/AsgnCmdOrMacroToToolbar.htm and
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/AsgnCmdOrMacroToHotkey.htm).
