The
PageBreak property returns or sets the location of a page break by using
the Microsoft Excel constants xlNone, xlManual, or xlAutomatic. The
PageBreak property must be applied to an entire row or column (or returned by
using an entire row or column as a reference).
Macro to Return Page Break Type for Selected Cell
You can use the following sample code to test for an automatic page break
above the active cell (horizontal) or next to the active cell (vertical)
on your worksheet. In this example, the macro displays a dialog box with a
message indicating whether there is an automatic page break above the
current row.
Sub Check_PageBreak()
Dim i As Integer, BreakType As Integer
' To check for a vertical page break, use the EntireColumn property.
BreakType = ActiveCell.EntireRow.PageBreak
If BreakType = xlAutomatic Then
' Enter the code that you want to run if the current row
' contains an automatic page break.
MsgBox "There is an automatic page break above this row"
ElseIf BreakType = xlManual Then
' Enter the code that you want to run if the current row
' contains a manual page break.
MsgBox "There is a manual page break above this row"
Else
' Enter the code that you want to run if the current row
' does not contain a page break.
MsgBox "There is no page break above this row"
End If
End Sub
Macro to Return Page Breaks for Entire Worksheet
The
PageBreak property returns a value that indicates what type of page break
exists in the selected range. The
PageBreak property does not return the
row or column number that the page break is associated with unless you test
each row on the worksheet. The following macro checks your entire
worksheet, and then displays a dialog box with the type of page break and the
number of the row located below the page break.
Sub CheckForPageBreaks()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 to ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
If Rows(i).PageBreak = xlManual then
MsgBox "There is a manual page break above row " & i
ElseIf Rows(i).PageBreak = xlAutomatic Then
MsgBox "There is an automatic page break above row " & i
End If
Next
End Sub
