    creating PDF file from word document inside folder with ID nr and ref nr

    Hi all,

    I have an excel database where I register cases. I have in it a button that creates a folder with and ID nr that is in column A (I create new ID nr in the next row, when I press the button it will create a folder with that ID nr and inserts a blank word document in it). We have a template that we copy to the folder (depending what type of case). The idea would be that once the template is filled in and ready to print, It would take the values from the ID nr and a reference number a few cells to the right. Is it possible to tell excel to open the word document in the folder and create a PDF version with the ID nr and reference number. (there are only 2 templates, so the macro would have to look for one of the two in the folder)
    The names of the templates are: "Standard" and "Other".
    I guess the best way to start maybe this would be that I select the cell with the ID nr and then press a macro button to have this done.
    One thing that needs to be done, is to put a copy in the same folder and another in a second folder called "Binder" in my documents folder.

    Any ideas to get this done?

    Greetings.
