WORKAROUND

Microsoft provides programming examples for illustration only, without warranty either expressed or implied.

This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements. If you manually remove page breaks from a worksheet while multiple worksheets are selected, make sure that you also switch to the last and next-to-last selected worksheets and remove the page breaks from these sheets.

You can also use a Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications macro to remove page breaks while multiple worksheets are selected, for example:

Sub RemoveBreaks()
   ' Store the cell from which to remove page breaks.
   xCell = ActiveCell.Address

   ' For each worksheet that is currently selected...
   For Each xSheet In ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets
       ' remove the page breaks from the active cell in that worksheet.
       xSheet.Range(xCell).PageBreak = xlPageBreakNone
   ' Repeat for all selected worksheets.
   Next xSheet
End Sub
				

In this example, xCell is the cell that is immediately below and/or to the right of a page break. When you run this macro, it removes the page breaks from the active cell in each of the selected worksheets.
