Before print increment counter

Hi, I was wondering if any one could help me. I have designed a
standard sheet, nothing fancy. This may be very easy for most of you
and is my first time programming in Excel.


What I want to do is before a page prints I want a number to incremen
eg.

If i want to print this form 50 times the number will increment from
- 50 so I will then end up with 50 copies. I understand this could b
done the long way by me cutting and pasting the sheet 50 times an
inserting page breaks, but what I want to do is save it after, so whe
I come back to print some more it will start from 51.

If any one could help it would be much appreciated.

Thank you for you time.

Hi
try the following VBA code (put it in your workbook module - not in a
standard module). It will increment cell A1 on sheet1:

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").value = _
worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").value + 1
End Sub
