<code class="lang-vb" style="line-height: 19px; -webkit-font-smoothing: auto; font-family: monospace, monospace; font-size: 0.875rem; border-radius: 2px; display: block; padding: 0px; border: 0px; direction: ltr; box-sizing: inherit;">
Code:
Worksheets([COLOR=#A31515]"Sheet1"[/COLOR]).PageSetup.PaperSize = xlPaperQuarto

I used this code trying to make sure my default papersize is used but I get runtime error 1004

Unable to set the pagesize property of the pagesetup class.

Any help?

Can I set for a postcard size?</code>

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
I got the same error as you using xlPaperQuarto. -- but it worked for a few other sizes.

Even though that is valid constant, I'm pretty sure that the ones you're actually allowed to use are controlled by what Printer (and printer driver) are installed on your computer. On my computer, if I try to change paper-size through the ribbon GUI, I only see like 5 sizes available -- I'd try this on your computer.


The MSN website has a note that reads:
[FONT=&quot]Note[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Some printers may not support all of these paper sizes.[/FONT]

Sure, I can access the Japan postcard size from the ribbon and since that name is spaced out I don't know how to get it work.


Also how does the xlPaperUser work?
