I must disagree---"The whole document" in a word processor is typically
unambiguous. Not so in a spreadsheet (workbook) In a spreadsheet
program, I believe that most people would regard the whole document to
be the active worksheet. This view has a minimum of two things to
support it:
1. It is logical
2. It is the way MS Office works
Because MS is VERY GOOD at ergonomics, I will argue that #2 is because
of #1.
Also--repeat the point that radical departures from the MSOffice norm
are not a good idea. (For example, I don't see anyone proposing "J",
"K", and "L" for cut, copy and paste.)
I LIKE the departures that make OOo better......;)
But, we HAVE agreed that I will now file this as an issue.

Guido;
thanks--I can see now how to get the desired result.
I am going to be stubborn on one thing: Having the default to be
printing the **entire workbook** seems to be, as a minimum,
user-hostile.
This behaviour is consistent with Writer, where - as far as I can see - no one
has had problems: In Writer, as well as in Calc, the preview is for viewing
the printed version of the whole doc. You can scroll through the pages, in
Calc as well in Writer preview. So activating the printer in preview is
understood as activating the printer for the whole doc.
You have pointed out how to get things done the way it is now
configured. My assertion is that it is configured poorly. I'm off to
the issues page.....
That's the way ... ;)
