I have done the following test code and found it very slow. Almost 7 seconds
to complete. I know someone also did a similar test and found the same
results. Is there any way to make the page setup run faster ? I have tried
to disable the display of page break as suggested by Microsoft knowledg base
but no help.

Thanks in advance.

The best way is to eliminate the setting you are not changing. Each setting
you make is a different call to the pagesetup and takes a measurable amount
of time. Instead of setting 30 or so settings, you probably only need to
make 2 or 3 changes. Remove the rest.

Note that these settings are complimentary

.Zoom = False
.FitToPagesWide = 2
.FitToPagesTall = False


so if you are using fittopages you need zoom set to false.

You want to also set displaypagebreaks after you do the page setup as well -
although that will speed up code running later, not this code.

Tom Ogilvy
