Printing All Open Documents

Summary: Have a bunch of documents you need to print? If all the documents are open, you can use a handy little macro to print them all at once. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, Word 2003, and Word 2007.)

Periodically you may be working with multiple documents on the screen at the same time, and you want to print them all. It can be cumbersome, at best, to manually switch between documents and then choosing to print each one. The following macro allows you to print all open documents:

Sub PrintAllDocuments
    ' Step through the open document windows
    For Each Doc In Documents
        Doc.PrintOut
    Next Doc
End Sub

This macro prints the documents to the default printer.

Tip #401 applies to Microsoft Word versions: 97 | 2000 | 2002 | 2003 | 2007
