Print last page only (word 2000)

I need to create a macro to print the last page of a document. This will be used to print the last page of many documents by lots of people. I can’t find a way to refer to the last page. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Have you tried the recording the steps of jumping to the last page (Ctrl-End) and then printing the current page?

  Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdStory
  Application.PrintOut FileName:="", Range:=wdPrintCurrentPage, Item:= _
    wdPrintDocumentContent, Copies:=1, Pages:="", PageType:=wdPrintAllPages, _
    ManualDuplexPrint:=False, Collate:=True, Background:=True, PrintToFile:= _
    False, PrintZoomColumn:=0, PrintZoomRow:=0, PrintZoomPaperWidth:=0, _
    PrintZoomPaperHeight:=0

Thanks. After thinking about it again I did exactly that.

Andrew’s method is the simplest, but if you don’t want the display to change to the last page, you could do something more complicated. In past threads, we’ve discussed the problem that documents with multiple sections can require the funky p1s2 (page 1 of section 2) syntax in the print dialog. We’ve also had some macros that address this… but I won’t rattle on unless it is needed.
