Hi,

We are running Office2K on WindowsXP, and when we try to
print multiple worksheets in Excel, they do not print
correctly if the page orientations are different(i.e. some
are landscape and some are portrait).

This problem did/does not occur on computers running
Office2K and Windows98.

Has anyone else run into this problem, or have a solution?

Thank you in advance,

Robb

Hi Rob,

The best solutions I can offer is to try to set each sheet
print settings for printout to "FitToPage"

Any sheet used for printout should be setup by control
person and tested, then set the above when things look ok
with you.

Hope this helps

this is a known problem since Orifice 97 (Excel). We have a workbook with 3 worksheets in it. We use the Ctrl+ or the Shift+ methods to select all the sheets and then go to File->Print and choose the settings. Worksheet 1 comes out portrait....on letter; sheets 2 & 3 come out on tabloid and in landscape. Microsloth says not to make the print settings through the "Print Preview" screen.....lotta help that was. The other suggestion they made was to install Service patch 1. Well, we are running SR-2 (f)

Any suggestions for me George? Anybody
