What I am aiming to do is have a button on a toolbar which will run such a
macro and save a sheet as a pdf document with a name which is a combination
of the contents of two or more cells on the worksheet.
I don't know how you can save a worksheet as a .pdf file since pdf
doesn't appear to be a valid file type in Excel. However you can save
a particular worksheet from a workbook by first copying the contents
of the worksheet to a new workbook, then, assuming A1 contains
"Myfilepart1" and A2 contains "Myfilepart2" - (the two cells
containing your required filename), and with the new workbook as the
active workbook
Use
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs filename:=Range("a1")&range("a2")
in your code.
