page counter dependent on pages printed

I would like to have a counter on my excel sheet that will change each time a page is printed( I hit print with the number 1 in a1, the next time I hit print I would like the number to change to 2....) I have head this can be done but do not know enough to write code myself. If anyone can help me with a basic cut and paste code it would save me a ton of time and headache in tracking thies documents after they have been printed.

Thanks for your help!!!

Hi,

If you go into your visual basic editor and double click on ThisWorkbook and paste the following code, the value in cell A1 will be increased by 1 each time the user clicks print.

However, this will increment regardless of whether the print succeeded or the user cancelled, but should give you a start.

Thanks,
Dom

is there a way in the previous question to save it to a spacific file every time it prints?

That is perfect thank you all for your help! Did exactly what I was hoping for!!!
