itsall1energy Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Wow! i can't believe I can't figure this out. I created a simple macro to show the dashed outline of pages in Excel. The macro I made is: Keyboard > Text Type <CONTROL>P Keyboard > Text Type <ESC> When I do this manually it works..........every time. When I try it with MacroExpress Pro 6.g.9.1 it ALWAYS brings up the "Format Cells" dialog box. I've tried various activations (alt+a, alt+e, alt+s, ctrl+t, ctrl+e). You get the idea. They ALL bring up the "Format Cells" dialog. I've tried both Global and specific window/program scope. Still nothing. I'm probably doing something basically wrong, but I don't know what. If I had any hair left, I'd be pulling it out by the handfuls. Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samrae Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Do this: <CONTROL>p Note the lower case P. When you manually press Ctrl+Shift+P in Excel it brings up the Format Cells dialog. When you press Ctrl+p it brings up the Print dialog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsall1energy Posted December 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2023 I KNEW it was something simple. I didn't know it was THIS simple. Thanks, Samrae! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
