Summary

Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications does not provide a method to determine the total number of pages that will print in a worksheet. However, you can use the ExecuteExcel4Macro method to use the GET.DOCUMENT(50) macro sheet function to return the total number of pages that will be printed on the active worksheet.
