MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / October 2007How do I print
I use Excel for a grocery shopping list. it's now expanded to about 80 items. I'd like to be able to read the list, but it's so long now that the type is about 3 point. What I'd like to do is print the list in 2 columns, and if it ever gets to this size of type in 2 columns, I'd like to make more columns as necessary. I tried just about every possible combo I could, but best I could come up with was it splitting the stuff into several pages. Not necessary. 2-3 columns on 1 page would be fine [better].  Signaturemore pix @ http://members.toast.net/cbminfo/index.html I like to copy the data into MSWord and use MSWord's builtin ability to do column layout. With lots of data, I sometimes have to paste into Notepad first--large tables cause me trouble in MSWord. If that doesn't work for you, David McRitchie has a macro that will "snake" the columns. http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/snakecol.htm If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm > I use Excel for a grocery shopping list. > it's now expanded to about 80 items.
