Hello guys

I have used the code below to save a sheet as PDF and then send with Outlook. But I am wondering if it's possible to save the sheet to BOTH *.pdf og *.xls file in the same directory? Is here anyone who can help me to find a solution ? :- )

Thanks in advance and have a nice day!

VBA Code:
