Dear,
I would like my Excel worksheet to be sent by email (as pdf) by running a macro.
I am using the below mentioned script. However, I would like to edit the script so that the file name is saved as a specific cell within the current sheet (for example F2) instead of the worksheet name, and the subject in the email to be the same (also what is mentioned in cell F2). How can I do this?
Many thanks for your help!

Dim xSht As Worksheet
Dim xFileDlg As FileDialog
Dim xFolder As String

Set xFileDlg = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
If xFileDlg.Show = True Then
xFolder = xFileDlg.SelectedItems(1)
Else
MsgBox "You must specify a folder to save the PDF into." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Press OK to exit this macro.", vbCritical, "Must Specify Destination Folder"
