Hi

Thanks for the help in advance on this matter.

I wanted to have a button on a landing page of a workbook to print a specific sheet named "leather letter" on the excel file.

So basically I would like that when someone clicks that button a prompt shows up with the "Save as" dialog so the user is able to select the location and the name of the file.

Can someone help me with this?

Thank you so much 🙌
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Assign this macro to the button.
VBA Code:
Public Sub Save_Sheet_As_PDF()

    Dim PDFfile As Variant
    
    PDFfile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(InitialFileName:=ThisWorkbook.Path, _
                                            FileFilter:="PDF (*.pdf), *.pdf", _
                                            Title:="Save leather letter sheet as PDF")
    
    If PDFfile <> False Then
        ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("leather letter").ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=PDFfile, _
        Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=False
    End If
        
End Sub
