    Generic Page Setup Macro applied to multiple workbooks with varying number of sheets

    Sheet one of my workbook has a listing of available command buttons. I am trying to get three of those buttons to format the page setup for different print sizes. I am trying to come up with three generic macros that will work if I have 5, 6, 7, or however many worksheets.

    Macro 1: Formats all pages to print 8.5 x 11 and then prints
    Macro 2: Formats to 8.5 x 14 and then prints
    Macro 3: Formats to 11 x 17 and then prints


    Is there a generic way of writing this code so that the same macro can be applied to multiple workbooks and adapt to different sheet quantities?

    I think that's when you would use a For Each ... Next loop. Search online VBA help for "For Each Next"

    Thank you for the help. This is what I came up with. One question....If the default printer is not capable of printing 11 x 17, it displays an error to the user. Is it possible for me to intercept that particular error box and display my own box, explaining what went wrong?
