Calling JJ re generate form at runtime

[michael.beckinsale]

JJ,

I use the code below to generate a list of all the visible worksheets
with a caption of the sheetname and a checkbox for each. The user then
selects which sheets they want printed. You should easily be able to
adapt for your requirements by changing the lines suffixed 'XXXXX ie
Call mymacro

This is from an earlier version of Excel and is therefore a dialogsheet
rather than a form but it still works!

Let ma know how you get on.

Sub Printmenu()
Dim i As Integer
Dim TopPos As Integer
Dim SheetCount As Integer
Dim PrintDlg As DialogSheet
Dim CurrentSheet As Worksheet
Dim cb As CheckBox
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
''''''''''''''''''' Check for protected workbook
If ActiveWorkbook.ProtectStructure Then
MsgBox "Workbook is protected.", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If
''''''''''''''''''''Add a temporary dialog sheet
Set CurrentSheet = ActiveSheet
Set PrintDlg = ActiveWorkbook.DialogSheets.Add
SheetCount = 0
''''''''''''''''''''Add the checkboxes
TopPos = 40
For i = 1 To ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
Set CurrentSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(i)
''''''''''''''''''''Skip empty sheets and hidden sheets
If Application.CountA(CurrentSheet.Cells) <> 0 And _
CurrentSheet.Visible Then
SheetCount = SheetCount + 1
PrintDlg.CheckBoxes.Add 78, TopPos, 150, 16.5
PrintDlg.CheckBoxes(SheetCount).Text = _
CurrentSheet.Name
TopPos = TopPos + 13
End If
Next i
''''''''''''''''''''Move the OK and Cancel buttons
PrintDlg.Buttons.Left = 240
''''''''''''''''''''Set dialog height, width, and caption
With PrintDlg.DialogFrame
.Height = Application.Max _
(68, PrintDlg.DialogFrame.Top + TopPos - 34)
.Width = 230
.Caption = "Select sheets to print"
End With
'''''''''''''''''Change tab order of OK and Cancel buttons
'''''''''''''''''so the 1st option button will have the focus
PrintDlg.Buttons("Button 2").BringToFront
PrintDlg.Buttons("Button 3").BringToFront
'''''''''''''''''Display the dialog box
CurrentSheet.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
If SheetCount <> 0 Then
If PrintDlg.Show Then
For Each cb In PrintDlg.CheckBoxes
If cb.Value = xlOn Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets(cb.Caption).Activate 'XXXXX
ActiveSheet.PrintOut 'XXXXX
End If
Next cb
End If
Else
MsgBox "All worksheets are empty."
End If
'''''''''''Delete temporary dialog sheet (without a warning)
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
PrintDlg.Delete
'''''''''Reactivate original sheet
CurrentSheet.Activate
End Sub
