The border will always adjust to the table's size.

If, when adding a new entry to the Grocery-Supplies Log table (it's called Table4 in your file) below the bottom of that table, the first thing you add should be in a column which does NOT have data validation. As soon as you do that, a new row gets added to the table and all the data validations are added to all the other columns in that new row . This means you don't need Data Validation in any cells below the extents of the table; in fact this is a waste of resources and I'd recommend you delete everything below that table; Formatting/Data Validation, the lot.

As far as setting a print range for printing out this data-entry table Table4, (ArviLaanamet's suggestion) the fact that it's now a table means that there already exists a dynamic range you can use to set the print area; it's called Table4[#All] and you can add it as the print area:

(The [#All] bit is just to include the headers)


I wish I could say the same about pivot table print areas; these are not so easy to set automatic print areas for.
