VBA: Zoom...Zoom

---

You can use VBA to change the Zoom of a worksheet. Here's code to change the Zoom of the ActiveWindow to 50%:

ActiveWindow.Zoom = 50

You can also loop through all the worksheets in your workbook to set a standard Zoom. The following Macro will set the Zoom for all worksheets to 50%:

Sub ZoomAll()

Dim ws As Worksheet



Application.ScreenUpdating = False



For Each ws In Worksheets

    ws.Activate

    ActiveWindow.Zoom = 50

Next



Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

And finally a magically growing worksheet. The following macro will loop through the Zooms for Sheet1, going from 10% to 200%, incrementing by 10%, pausing a second between changes, and then it will restore Sheet1 back to it's original state.

Sub ZoomZoom()



Dim x As Integer 'variable for loop

Dim OriginalZoom As Integer 'variable for original zoom



Sheet1.Activate 'let's work with sheet1



OriginalZoom = ActiveWindow.Zoom 'get current zoom



'loop through zoom 10 to 200 by 10

    For x = 1 To 20

        ActiveWindow.Zoom = x * 10

        Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")

    Next x

    

'restore original zoom

ActiveWindow.Zoom = OriginalZoom



End Sub
