when clicked on deburg, below in bold is highlited in yellow.

Kindly help to fix this.

Sub DesktopPDF()

'Set path to Desktop
    fPath = "C:\Users\divecak\Desktop"

'Build File Name from Sheet1 I8, A11 & H11
    fName = Sheets(1).Range("I8") & " - " & _
            Sheets(1).Range("A11") & " - " & _
            Sheets(1).Range("H11")

'Export as PDF to Desktop
[B]    ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=fPath & fName, _
        Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, _

Try adding a back slash at the end of the fPath string.

Hi,

Tried below, but still the same error

C:\Users\divecak\Desktop\

Is fName a valid file name? Does it end with ".pdf"?

Try it with a fixed file name:

fName = "Test.pdf"

Hi John,

It worked but i need the file name from cells mentioned in the code.

Please help.

What is the value of fName from the cells?

 

[Akshay_divecha]

Its the invoice no and customer name.. but that will keep on changing as an when invoice is generated.

Hi John,

I tried changing the code but still there is an error

    fName = Sheets(1).Range("I8") & " - " & _
            Sheets(1).Range("A11") & " - " & _
            Sheets(1).Range("H11") & ".pdf"

Yes, but what is the actual value? Give examples - I want to see if it's a valid file name.

Hi,

Since i have not access to upload excel, i will try explaining the requirements .

value in cell I8 = 123/45679/000

value in cell A11 = abcdecdghdh

value in cell H11 = EGLV130900062647

so the file name should be 123/45679/000 - abcdecdghdh - EGLV130900062647
