Success!! Thank you both so very much - you helped me be a star at my new
job! (yes, I admitted I had help from the experts!)

Ever grateful,
Janice

Tony's fingers slipped :-) when he wrote "Private" at the beginning of the
first two of the three procedures. Only PrintPage2 should say "Private". The
FilePrint and FilePrintDefault procedures should say "Public" instead, or
just omit the "Private" because "Public" is assumed if there's no modifier
there.

This article (appropriately named!) helped me understand what I'm
doing. I was able to follow the instructions - even put the macro in
a module of its own in VB Editor. However, when I print, I still get
both pages, and when I go to ToolsMacroMacros, I don't see it in
the list box. I do see it in the Organizer, and as part of the
project in VB Editor. What next? Thanks for your patience....

Hi Tony,

Thank you for your response - must confess I had given up. Next
question -
how do I embed this code in the document? Sorry, but we seem to be
way beyond my realm of expertise now.... I did try simplistically
pasting the code in at the top of the doc - and tried finding steps
in Help... no luck... Thanks for your help!

Hi janice,

With code in the document (or its template if relevant) as
follows, you can set to print only page 2 by default.

Private Sub FilePrint()
Call PrintPage2
End Sub

Private Sub FilePrintDefault()
Call PrintPage2
End Sub

Private Sub PrintPage2()
With Application.Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint)
.Range = 4
.Pages = "p2"
.Show
End With
End Sub

news The doc will be printed from a forms folder on our intranet, and
not a security issue - we're just looking for an automatic fix to
save half the paper...

I started to write a reply about intercepting the Print request
(using a
Sub
FilePrint) - which could go some way towards it - but the more I
thought about it the more I realised that the most likely impact
of anything
you
did
would be total confusion. Are you trying for security purposes
(in which case you are probably wasting your time) or
paper-saving ones?

I have a 2-page document which will be used by other people. Is
there
a
way
to set it up so that by default page one will never print? I
know
how
to
use
the print dialog to print current page, or print a range of
pages,
but
can't
come up with a way to imbed the command in the document itself
so
that
only
page 2 ever prints no matter who prints it.
