    A Button that will Open up to PDF on Excel

    I am trying to create a Macro Button that once I click-it it will open up a PDF on my desktop. But also whoever uses the workbook once they click on the button it will open a PDF on their desktop.

    Thank you!

    Well where is the pdf saved? will it always be on the users desktop - what if it isn't there?

    It will be saved on any users desktop - so If I active the PDF button i should have the option to save it on my desktop. If you active the PDF button you should be able to save it on your desktop, etc... for any user.

    are you opening an existing pdf file or saving a new one? your question implies both

    Not sure if I am answering the question correctly. But from the excel. I have a workbook that has four different sheets of reports that are generated from a main sheet of data. On the main sheet of data I would like a button that says Create a PDF. Once they click this button it four different PDF open up on the users desktop. They can then save the PDF file on their desktop.

    Hope that made sense.

    So you want to export your sheets to PDF at the click of a button?

    Will all your users have Excel 2010 installed?

    Yes, i would want any user who uses the workbook to be able to export only the four sheet that has been updated with new data to a pdf.
