    Embedded OLEObject (Word) in Excel export to pdf after changing it

    Hello, I'm new here
    I'm duth (from Belgium) so my Englisch is not quit good but I'll try to do my best.
    I hope you can think about this when there's an answer and keep your answer extremely simple :-) but I'll do my best to understand al your answers.

    I need help with a code, vba, for making a macro.
    I can't find any solutions of it so I hope the experts here can help me :-)

    So, i have an excel-file.
    On one of the sheets (blad1) I have an embedded Word OLEObject.
    I can change this object instantly in excel but I want to save it as a pdf-file everytime there are changes on de object.

    Can anybody help me to make a code?

    Thanks a lot Joske. Heel erg bedankt Joske !
    I was only struggeling for searching the object-name. I found it by richt-click on the object - assign macro - and there was the name

    It worked fine for me.
    I will also share this link on a dutch forum.
