In the .Orientation = StrOrientation section I have replaced the variable with "xlPortrait" and it works so I know it isn't a printer issue. I have entered the variable reference in incorrectly but I cannot work out where or how.


Thanks in advance

Hi froodo,

Welcome to the forum.

I may have a solution, but before I can suggest it you'll need to PM a moderator to have your code wrapped as your thread currently breaks Rule 3 of the forum (see here for more info).

Once this is done I'll gladly post my suggested solution.

The orientation options (i.e. Portrait or Landscape) must be returned as integers (1 or 2 respectively).

Have a look at the following which checks the value in the "Orientation" named range to assign one of the two values to the "intPrintOrientation" accordingly. I've also included some notes to hopefully explain things:
