Hi All,
Hope you can help me.

I have an excel with sheets that are activated when a value put in a cell.
I want to save only the activated, unhidden sheets to a PDF document.
I've tried this code, but it saves all the sheets and not the ones I activated...

Can anybody help me with this?

VBA Code:
Sub PDFActiveSheet()
 
'Dim wsA As Sheets
   Dim wbA     As Workbook
   Dim strTime As String
   Dim strName As String
   Dim strPath As String
   Dim strFile As String
   Dim strPathFile As String
   Dim myFile  As Variant
   On Error GoTo errHandler
 
   Set wbA = ActiveWorkbook
   arr = Array("commercial invoice", "shipping advice", "end use letter", "shipper declaration", "EXPORT CERT A")
   Set wsA = Sheets(arr)
   wsA.Select
   strTime = Format(Now(), "yyyymmdd\_hhmm")
 
   'get active workbook folder, if saved
   strPath = wbA.Path
   If strPath = "" Then
      strPath = Application.DefaultFilePath
   [URL='http://www.php.net/end']End[/URL] If
   strPath = strPath & ""
 
   'replace spaces and periods in sheet name
   strName = Replace(Replace(Join(arr), " ", ""), ".", "_")
 
   'create default name for savng [URL='http://www.php.net/file']file[/URL]
   strFile = strName & "_" & strTime & ".pdf"
   strPathFile = strPath & strFile
 
   'use can enter name and
   ' select folder for [URL='http://www.php.net/file']file[/URL]
   myFile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename _
            (InitialFileName:=strPathFile, _
             filefilter:="PDF Files (*.pdf), *.pdf", _
             Title:="Select Folder and FileName to save")
 
   'export to PDF if a folder was selected
   If myFile <> "False" Then
      ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat _
            Type:=xlTypePDF, _
            Filename:=myFile, _
            Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
            IncludeDocProperties:=True, _
            IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
            OpenAfterPublish:=False
      'confirmation message with [URL='http://www.php.net/file']file[/URL] info
      MsgBox "PDF file has been created: " _
             & vbCrLf _
             & myFile
   [URL='http://www.php.net/end']End[/URL] If
 
exitHandler:
   [URL='http://www.php.net/exit']Exit[/URL] Sub
errHandler:
   MsgBox "Could not create PDF file"
   Resume exitHandler
[URL='http://www.php.net/end']End[/URL] Sub
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
