Save Active sheet as .pdf - file error

[Pacific_Quest]

Good afternoon,

I'm currently running VBA;

The file generates and saves as a .pdf, however upon opening the file, it pops up that it's unable to open because it is either not supported, corrupt or not decoded correctly

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,
PQ

Welcome to the forum
Try swapping out the SaveAs line for this:

Next time - record a macro and see what Excel writes - it may need modifying but it is very useful for getting the syntax and file types etc correct


Also please edit your original post and select your VBA code and then click on # icon to wrap code tags around it
thanks

Posting code between [CODE]Please [url=https://www.excelforum.com/login.php]Login or Register [/url] to view this content.[/CODE] tags makes your code much easier to read and copy for testing, it also maintains VBA formatting.

Since you specify Type no need to add the extra ".pdf" (also notice the extra dot in front of pdf). It's added automatically upon saving.
