Limit Cells That Are To Be Printed Or Exported To PDF Document Or Hide Columns
Ok here is the problem I have run into. I have a code on the page to limit the printing area to a certain amount of cells, but I'm finding that the code does nothing if it is exported to or converted to a .pdf document. There are several columns I am using for VBA coding information that do not need to be printed or displayed. Example of these columns would by J,k and L. J is being used for calculations and simply displays a text value. This column is then searched for a certain text phrase and it is counted and displayed on another sheet. K is simply a column that ranges from the #1 to 20000. This column was created to give a unique value to each row. This was per another user and so far everything has worked fine.
The problem is that if I "HIDE" the column the VBA code seems to crash because it needs to be able to see that code on the sheet to work. If I leave the codes on there and export or convert to a .PDF file it also takes those pages and now instead of a 50 page file it is 1000's of pages long. It keeps printing all the column "K" values. This is useless as in most inspections will not have that many numbers. I just made it so that any amount of devices could be added by the user or copied and pasted into the workbook.
I'm looking for a way to solve the problem of having these columns printed or converted to a .PDF file. If it is as simple as having the VBA code work from a hidden column that is fine. The idea is that I just want to print the information from columns A - I.
As it is the inspectors can not figure out how to get just the information they need.
Thanks for any help you can give.
I'm sorry for the explanation but I really don't know how to explain it any better.
