With Sheets("WhatsItsname") 'substitute actual value
If Not .Range("B17") = "" Then

Hi
One more for you to try.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim a As Range, b As Range, c As Range
Set a = Sheets("sheet1").Range("B17") 'You need to change the name of the
sheet is it's not sheet1
Set b = Sheets("sheet1").Range("i17")
Set c = Sheets("sheet1").Range("L17")
If a > "" Then
If b = "" Or c = "" Then
MsgBox "You need to fill in the two cells i17 & L17"
Cancel = True
End If
End If
End Sub
