Hello
I have created a userform that takes data from several different sheets in a document and displays charts depending on certain inputs. I want to be able to print the whole form, but
A) I had to use a scroll bar to get everything I wanted onto the form and it only displays that visible portion when printing
B) The form is too wide, so using
userform.Printform
cuts off a significant portion.
Is there a better way to make this happen? I considered trying to export it somehow and print the image, but I don't know how to make that work or if it's even possible. I only started learning VBA about two weeks ago and I have very limited coding experience
even beyond that.
Thanks for any help you're able to provide.

I'm sorry to bother you, but could you explain to me what this does exactly? As far as I can tell it puts the entire visible window of the userform into the clipboard, pastes it to a sheet, and then formats the printing from there. Is that in any way correct?
And how does it copy the userform to the clipboard?

You are correct - the code takes a snapshot of the userform and pastes it into a workbook, which allow the print-to-fit option to be used (which is not available with userforms). How exactly it does it is - magic ;-) Tom Ogilvy is a really smart
guy - he uses the system library files to control the useform's window and what gets copied to the clipboard.

Great, Thanks a lot!
