Loop until a cell is a certain number

[stroffso]

Hi,

I have some code below where H8 is an invoice number which I will start at the number 4000. Cell Z1 is a customer name.

I then want to run this code until all invoices are ran up to number 4300. So in essences running this piece of code 300 times with Invoice 4000 being the first one, 4001 the second and so on. Could someone advise please and what i need to add 1 to change cell H8 after each time the code is run and then run the code again. I am guessing its Do until but not sure how to implement, TIA

Sub saveinvoice()

Call hide

v = "Invoice " & ActiveSheet.Range("H8") & "-" & ActiveSheet.Range("Z1") & ".pdf"
    ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
        "Invoice " & ActiveSheet.Range("H8") & "-" & ActiveSheet.Range("Z1") & ".pdf", Quality _
        :=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
        OpenAfterPublish:=False

Range("B1:I204").Select
    ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$B$1:$I$204"


     
    With ActiveSheet
        .ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=v, _
        Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, _
        IgnorePrintAreas:=False, From:=1, To:=16, OpenAfterPublish:=False
    End With
  

Call unhide

End Sub

How about this:

Sub saveinvoice()

    Dim x As Long, v As String

    Call Hide
    
    For x = 4000 To 4300
        v = "Invoice " & x & "-" & ActiveSheet.Range("Z1") & ".pdf"
        ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
        "Invoice " & x & "-" & ActiveSheet.Range("Z1") & ".pdf", Quality _
            :=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
            OpenAfterPublish:=False

        Range("B1:I204").Select
        ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$B$1:$I$204"
     
        With ActiveSheet
            .ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=v, _
            Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, _
            IgnorePrintAreas:=False, From:=1, to:=16, OpenAfterPublish:=False
        End With
    Next

    Call unhide

End Sub

Thanks but that runs the code in a loop but doesnt change the value in Cell H8 (the invoice number) by 1 each time meaning its essentially PDFing the exact sale thing every time just calling it something else.

So the steps if doing manually would be.
1. Enter 4000 in cell H8
2. PDF invoice
3. Change cell H8 to 4001
4. Repeat step 2
5. Change cell H8 to 4002

and so on

Worked it out, thanks for your help

        ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
        "Invoice " & x & "-" & ActiveSheet.Range("Z1") & ".pdf", Quality _
            :=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
            OpenAfterPublish:=False

        Range("B1:I204").Select
        ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$B$1:$I$204"
     
        With ActiveSheet

        End With
        Call unhide
        Range("H8") = Range("H8") + 1
    Next

    

End Sub
