Hi All,
I have MS Word 2000 and would like to print out a document with odd pages
first and then turn the paper over and print the even pages. When I click
print it just starts printing. I know I have done it before on other
programs but can't figure out how to do it with MS Word.
Any help is appreciated.

George,

File | Print
Then in the dialog box that opens, near the lower right is a box that reads:
All pages in range. Click the little down arrow and select Odd pages. Next
time select Even pages.
 
Note that, depending on how your printer outputs pages, you may need to
select "Reverse print order" in the Print Options before printing the even
pages.

G-Day George,

Please that most printers (Today) will do this for you -
When you use File>Print, investigate your Printer properties,
if available select 'double-sided' and 'side-flip'.
 
Also, recent versions of Word have a "Manual duplex" check box in the Print
dialog.

Thanks Chuck, Pat and Suzanne for the replys. You guys are a great help. I
see in the printer window DOUBLE SIDED PRINTING but I thought if I checked
it I needed the extra printer part to make that work. Also in the window
that comes up is PRINT ALL or below that you can check numbr X-X but the
drop down below that that lets you pick Odd or Even is not there.
A friend I worked with at NBC News wrote a screen play of our day at 9/11
and it is 80 pages. I wanted to save paper and print it on both sides but
no luck so far.
I will try the good suggestions and let you guys know if it works.
Thanks again.
