Beth,

On the ribbon next to the Office icon is an icon "print" but this doesn't
have a "print selected items only"
When selecting the Office icon and then selecting "print" from the drop down
menu,there is still no provision to print selected item only.
On office 2003 it was simple.

Beth,
Have finally discovered how to do it. If I click on print from the drop down
main menu & click on print, the old 2003 selection box appears & I can then
print selected items only.

I'm glad you figured it out. The 'main menu' is called the Microsoft
Office Button and that's where you'll find file related commands.
Also, for future questions it's helpful if you include the version of
Word you are using. As you have found, Word 2007 is different from the
other versions and the instructions to help you are different too. :-)

I have Works Word 9.0 and I do not get a "Print Selection" option no matter
how I access the "Print" dialogue box. Is there a way to tell the program to
use the 2003 settings instead of the newer ones?
