Help with Mr. Peterson's Code.. Print serially from a Sheet

P

prkhan56

The following code works fine for printing as suggested by Mr.
Peterson.
My need now is to send a soft copy to someone...in pdf format and the
following code generates separate file for each instance.

Can it be changed to give print a range of records like in Microsoft
Word...e.g a Range like From Page to To Page

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Private Sub PrintForm()
Dim myRng As Range
