Hello, I'm new to VBA and excel but I've been stuck trying to figure out how to do what I need. I have a single excel spreadsheet named ShipTask1 that stays open always. I need to auto save at 7am and 7pm every day in a certain folder with Date_Time_ShipTask1 as the name and in PDF format. I can't have any popups happen that interrupts the excel sheet. I've looked through the forum and tried adapting several codes for autosave but none seem to do what I need without error. Thank you all for the help!
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
Should this work? Again I'm new to this and have limited programing experience.

Sub AutoSave()

Dim FilePath As String
Dim FileName As String
FilePath = "C:\Users\APS1\Desktop\Maps\Daily Report\2017\August"
FileName = FilePath & Format(Date, "_", "MM-DD-YYYY") & " _ShipTask1"

If
Application.OnTime = ("19:00") Then
ActiveWorkbook.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, FileName:=FileName
End If

End Sub
