I was getting that as well and the PDF part was freezing my excel.,When I looked through the code, your file location was not correct.

"F:\BOOKING "
I changed it to
"F:\BOOKING\"
and the problem went away.

I assume when the code was in error, it was not finishing, and the sheet was not resetting.
