Hi forum,

I have created a macro button that when pressed it saves the current worksheet as a PDF.

This works great except the only thing I do not want to appear on the PDF is the button itself.

Do you know of a way around this please? Other than having the button on a different part of the worksheet/book.

Many thanks

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Hi

Did you use a Form control or a activex Control

Because Form Controls by default don't Save to a PDF (print =false)

Activex have a property Printobject which defaults to true

creating a PDF is like Printing a file in EXCEL

I used an Active X control. Ahhh I never knew that. So simple

Thanks very much for this.

I must go and learn the differences between the 2 types.
