    Printing individual forms from a table

    I have set up an excel spreadsheet. I have then created a form (i need people to physically sign off the content of each row) on another sheet which I have used lookup based on an item code. What I want to do to get a macro or something to sequentially go down the spreadsheet and change the items code to that it prints out an individual form for each row.

    Anyone got any ideas.

    Thank you

    Why don't you use MS Word Mail Merge to "Letters" using your Excel spreadsheet as the source document.

    I would think that's much easier than developing and maintaining VBA code.

    I've posted code to do this in the past, you need to attach a dummy workbook.
    Hope that helps.

    Try this

    Option Explicit
    
    Sub AutoShape1_Click()
        Dim rCl As Range
        Dim rRng As Range
        With Sheets("Data")
            Set rRng = .Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
            For Each rCl In rRng
                With Sheets("Form")
                    .Cells(6, 3).Value = rCl.Value
                    .PrintPreview
                    '.PrintOut '<- use when finished testing
                End With
            Next rCl
        End With
    End Sub
    Copy the Excel VBA code
    Select the workbook in which you want to store the Excel VBA code
    Hold the Alt key, and press the F11 key, to open the Visual Basic Editor
    Choose Insert | Module
    Where the cursor is flashing, choose Edit | Paste
    To run the Excel VBA code:

    Choose Tools | Macro | Macros
    Select a macro in the list, and click the Run button
    Alternatively add a button to the form
