I am using an ActiveX button to execute the printing of one sheet from another, this is working. But I am also am trying to save the second sheet as a PDF based on a cell value in the first worksheet, in the same code.

Here is the code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()


'Print only "Cal Sheet"
Sheets("Cal Sheet").PrintOut




Dim StrFilename As String
Dim rngRange As Range


Set rngRange = Worksheets("Cal Sheet").Range("C13")
StrFilename = rngRange.Value
ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, FileName:="S:\Calibration Bench\CS20\Bencch Data\S-Series" & StrFilename & ".pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=False


Sheets("Cal Sheet").Select


End Sub

the print function works, but the save function saves the wrong sheet and doesn't give the name from the data in C13.

any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
