Macro to save a file as a PDF
How do I end off a written macro to save my file as a PDF using a specific
field as the file name ? |
Excel doesn't have the ability to save as a PDF file, so the
reply to your question would depend on what program you are using to create the PDF file. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "ynissel" wrote in message ...

and your additional comment was what ?
If you checked something in the CDO menus, it is unseen in the newsgroups, which are strictly text postings. What you have to do is to choose the printer, and if you have something to create a PDF file you should see the appropriate choice, and you would print to a file. You can get the code by recording a macro.

I have Adobe Writer that adds a toolbar to convert to PDB. Can I run that
from within a macro - and use a specific cell as my filename ? Thanks.

Worked like a charm - one more follow up - can I specify in the macro where
to "save/print" it ? Thanks, Yosef "David McRitchie" wrote: File, Print, choose printer Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "ynissel" wrote in message ... I reposted, sorry.

Didn't you get a dialog "Print to Output file"
where you specify where you want it to go. If you didn't, I wouldn't know what would control that. "ynissel" wrote in message ...
