Good evening all, I'm hoping that one of you very clever people can help me out with this request.

I'm after a macro where i push a button within the workbook that will PDF one of the worksheets within the workbook.
I would like the code to save it in a certain folder on the computer with a file name taken from a cell in the workbook and also add the date to the file name.

Hope that makes sense, thanks in advance for any help provided.

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Hello. Try this out.

VBA Code:
Sub savetoPDF()

'Declares current sheet as the sheet to export, change to suit
    Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = ActiveSheet 'or something like Sheets("Sheet1")

'The file path is set to the path of this workbook, change to suit
    Dim fPath As String: fPath = ThisWorkbook.Path

'The file name is set to PDF Output, change range to suit
    Dim fName As String: fName = ws.Range("A2").Value & "_" & Format(Date, "mmddyyyy")

'The complete save as string
    Dim sPath As String: sPath = fPath & "/" & fName & ".pdf"

'Exports the sheet to PDF
    ws.ExportAsFixedFormat xlTypePDF, sPath

End Sub

Or in a condensed form.
Change Sheet, Folder and Cell reference as required.
Code:
Sub Condensed()
    Sheet1.PrintOut , , , , , True, , "C:\Folder Name Here\" & Range("D4").Value & " " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yyyy") & ".PDF"
End Sub
