I have a workbook with multiple worksheet that I need to be able each sheet to a different address. I found the following VBA macro that will convert the active sheet to a pdf, append it to an email, insert the email address, and save the pdf into a file. I then have to manually send the email. I need the macro to do this for all the appropriate worksheets (I have a few worksheets that are for common variable and do not need to be emailed) and email and save them automatically at the same time when I run the macro. I found a loop subroutine that is below the first macro but am not sure how to integrate it into the rest of the program. I know little about VBA and Macros so appreciate any help you can provide.

'...create email code
'write the destination address:
.To=Wks.Cells(2,"M")
'attach the file
.Attachments.Add PDFFile
'...rest of code
Next
and I also found this.
Dim Wks as Worksheet
For Each Wks in Thisworkbook.Worksheets
Application.Goto wks.cells(1,1)
'you are now in that sheet, do what you need, use Wks.Name if you need the name of current sheet in your code...
