Hi everyone.
I asked part one of this question and it was answered quickly. HOW CAN I FIND THAT THREAD SO I DON'T DUPLICATE IN THE FUTURE?? (uggh....sorry)

Goal: I have a 365 macro to save the file as a XLS file, then a PDF. Someone (thank you to that person!!) answered the question, but now that edit in my code (see below and image) causes a WITH error.

Also, I'm not a VBA'er -But- am learning the power of writing VBA ==> What resources are good? Something with "Heres an example of using VBA to....." instead of "Here are some commands to learn."

Here's the full code
VBA Code:
//-----------------------   BEGIN VBA
'============   MYMACRO

Sub AA_PW_Changer_on_its_file_021121()

' PW changer saver as PD fand xls  02-11-21  1230  XLS kept dpoing "autorecovered file" in macro   ??
' A_save_PW_as_xls_and_pdf Macro
' turn off application alerts
'
'==========  TURN OFF APPLICATION ALERTS
'
With Application.DisplayAlerts = False              'Turns off alerts
AlertBeforeOverwriting = False          'Turns of overwrite
Alerts.ScreenUpdating = False                   'Turns of screen updating
End With
' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
        "E:\Dropbox\G_Drive_PA_HH\EXCEL\password changer.xlsm", FileFormat:= _
        xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
    ActiveWorkbook.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
        "E:\Dropbox\G_Drive_PA_HH\EXCEL\password changer.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard _
        , IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
        "E:\Dropbox\G_Drive_PA_HH\EXCEL\password changer.xlsm", FileFormat:= _
        xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=True
    ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-75
    Range("F3:J7").Select
' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'==========  TURN  ==> on <== APPLICATION ALERTS
'
With Application.DisplayAlerts = True                 'Turns back on alerts
AlertBeforeOverwriting = True        'Turns on Overwrite alerts
ScreenUpdating = True                'Turns on screen updating

End With
End Sub
//-----------------------    END vba

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Start with fixing your "Application Alerts" disable commands:
VBA Code:
With Application
    .DisplayAlerts = False                    'Turns off alerts
    .AlertBeforeOverwriting = False           'Turns of overwrite
    .ScreenUpdating = False                   'Turns of screen updating
End With
and their respective enable commands at the end of the macro.
