Hello I am new to excel and using windows & 64 bit and Excel 2013
For work we have to save in a file based on the month. The same lines of code work in a saveas macro but give me errors in every way I try them in a covert to pdf. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this code? Thanks.


[Sub SaveAsPDF()


Dim str As String
str = ThisWorkbook.Path


ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, _
Filename:="str & "\" & "SW Patrol " & Format(DateAdd("d", -1, Date), "m-dd-YY").pdf", _
OpenAfterPublish:=True

End Sub]

You have you quotes a little mixed up.

Code:
 ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=str & "\" & "SW Patrol " & Format(DateAdd("d", -1, Date), "m-dd-YY") & ".pdf", OpenAfterPublish:=True
