Hi I'd like to be able to easily print a specific section in a document, either using a macro or (ideally) not. The doc is a report template that a large number of people will use from Work Group templates; it is in 3 sections, 1 is the template preview to help users find the right one and 3 is the end-notes. 2 can be of variable length (depending upon how much they type in). If they are printing it would be nice to have an easy way to print only section 2 so they don't have to remember to set the page ranges each time. Thanks for any help Gill Schofield

In the print dialog, instead of writing a page range to print (like: 5-47) type a section to print: s2. You can also print specific pages from specific sections: p2s2-p6s2,p4s3,s4. Etc.
If by "sections", you mean the portion of a document between two Section Breaks, or before the first Section Break or after the last Section Break, where the Section Breaks are inserted from the Insert>Break menu item, then in the File Print dialog, to print the second such section of the document , you would enter s2 in the Pages control of the Page range section of the Print dialog. -- Hope this helps.
