    Error 438"Object Doesn't Support This Property or Method" - On print all Docs in folder

    Hey guys,

    I'm getting a 438 on the below code. I've taken it straight from the microsoft website and have no idea why its not working. anyone have any clues?

    Getting the error on the red line. I can see that the folder and file is correct. Do i need a particular reference library to run this?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I always print it to the immediate window.

    (I looked for an hour at some code I have written a while ago, but couldn't for the life of me, see that 2014 and FY14 were different.)

    Is this Word, or Excel? You can't Application.Printout with Excel (Only Word)

    You'll have to load the workbook first.

    Hi Tinbendr, Thanks for your advice!

    So is there another way for me to print all word documents in a folder using an excel macro?

    You'll have to declare a Word Application object, then use Application.Printout.

    Not tested.
