How to quickly print hidden worksheets in Excel?

Author Xiaoyang Last modified

If you have a workbook containing numerous worksheets, some of which are visible and others hidden, and you wish to print only the hidden ones, follow these steps. Since Excel does not allow printing of hidden sheets by default, I'll guide you through using a simple VBA code to accomplish this:

1. Press the "Alt" + "F11" keys to open the" Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications" window.

2. In the "Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications" window, please click "Insert" > "Module". Then copy below VBA code into the Code window.

VBA code: Print hidden worksheets in Excel

Sub PrintHiddenSheets()
'Updated by Extendoffice 2024/07/15
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Dim CurStat As Variant
For Each wSheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If Not wSheet.Visible Then
CurStat = wSheet.Visible
wSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible
wSheet.PrintOut
wSheet.Visible = CurStat
End If
Next
End Sub

2. And then click Run button button or the F5 key to run the code. This will print all the hidden worksheets in your workbook.
