Hi, i built a macro to print from several files and sheets as pdfs, which is working fine. However, I wanted to specify the page/print setup orientation (portrait vs. landscape). I was hoping the below would work by specifying the preferred orientation in column G (e.g cell G5 will say "Landscape", but it didn't. Can someone confirm that the below thinking wouldn't work? Is there a way I can achieve that without doing a couple of IF statements?

Code:
 Layout = Range("G" & i).Value
  wsa.PageSetup.Orientation = xl & Layout
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
I know I answered this yesterday, but somebody deleted it.

Code:
Sub Orient()
    Dim s
    Dim Layout As String

    For i = 1 To 5

        Layout = Range("G" & i).Value
        s = IIf(Layout = "Landscape", 2, 1)
        ActiveSheet.PageSetup.Orientation = s
        
    Next i
End Sub
