It's not a lot of help to say "it stop somewhere". Could you tell me where,
and exactly what the error message was?

 

[mailman]

sorry but that is where it sto

Private Declare Function ClosePrinter Lib "winspool.drv"
(ByVal hPrinter As Long) As Lon

and the error is " Only cooment may appear after End Sub End function and End property
and to me it is not the case but may be it is way over my knowledge. Thank

the error is " Only comment may appear after End Sub End function and End property"


Look carefully, you have a command after the End Sub statement. Or you have an End
Sub statement in the middle of the macro. The only thing that can be after and End
Sub is a comment, which starts with a ' (apostrophe).

Hi mailman

The Declare statement *must* be before any Sub/Function/Property statements.
