Printing

[Guest]

I have a spreadsheet with 5 long columns of information. I am trying to
print it using 2 "newpaper" columns in portrait format and can't get it. Can
someone help?
Cheers

Public Sub Snake5to10()
Dim myRange As Range
Dim colsize As Long
Dim maxrow As Long
Const numgroup As Integer = 2
Const NUMCOLS As Integer = 5
On Error GoTo fileerror
colsize = Int((ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count + _
((NUMCOLS - 1)) / NUMCOLS)) / numgroup
'MsgBox "Number of Rows to Move is: " & colsize
Range("A1").Select
With ActiveCell.Parent.UsedRange
maxrow = .Cells(.Cells.Count).Row + 1
End With
ActiveCell.Parent.Cells(maxrow, ActiveCell.Column) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
Set myRange = Range(ActiveCell.Address & ":" _
& ActiveCell.Offset(-colsize, (NUMCOLS - 1)).Address)
myRange.Cut Destination:=ActiveSheet.Range("E1")
