Can Excel send PrintScreen key through sendkeys? The internet says no...
If it truly cannot, can I instead import the picture of the pdf to Excel? If so, how? Thanks.
Below is my simple code.


Sub docbrown()

dim s as string

Start:
s=myfile.pdf
AppActivate s
Call AppActivate(s)
Application.SendKeys "~"
IT IS RIGHT HERE I WANT TO use SendKeys for PRINTSCREEN

End Sub

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
