Default how to select paragraphs to be printed

While you can select non-contiguous selections by holding the CTRL key
whilst making the selections, you cannot readily print such a selection from
the print dialog. The following macro will however print it.

Sub PrintSelected()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error GoTo Oops
Selection.Copy
Documents.Add
Selection.Paste
With ActiveDocument
.PrintOut
.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End
Oops:
MsgBox "Select the text you wish to copy first!"
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
