I have created a workbook with around ten worksheets . I would like to know
if it is possible to set print guidlines so that when i with to print of the
work book it only prints the work sheets i require. ie instead of printing
all ten only print 4 of them. if it is can it be saved in this format so that
the next timeopen and i wish to print the work book it prints the the same 4
worksheets everytime.
 
Not the best solution, but you can hold down 'ctrl' and select the 4 sheets
you want to print, and then under print options, where you choose what you
want to print, select "active sheet(s)"
 
Record a macro whilst doing this and run it next time you print.

Or use this generic macro which prints just the pre-selected sheets.

Sub Printit()
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut
End Sub

Thanks for your help and prompt reply Gord. Is the macro the only way or
could i organise the worksheets better.
 
The macro is not the only way.

You can just select the sheets as Luke suggested then File>Print>Active Sheet(s)

Or if you record a macro whilst selecting the sheets you will get code like
this.

Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet4", "Sheet7", "Sheet12")).Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut
