How can I set the papersize in VBA based on the value in a named range.
If the user has chosen US I want the papersize to be letter, else A4.
I have tried the following without success. PrintpaperSize is my named range

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = [PrintPaperSize]
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
I just figured it out that you give it an interger based on what excel uses
xlPaperSizeConstant = [PrintPaperSize]
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperSizeConstant

What I was looking for was if you already had an If statement, something like....

Code:
Sub MyPaperSize()
    If [PrintPaperSize] = "US" Then
        ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperLetter
    Else
        ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperA4
    End If
End Sub

I didnt have one otherwise I would have done it like you mentioned. In the end if the user chose US it put the interger 1 (Which represents letter) in [PrintPaperSize] otherwise 9 (Which represents a4)
