Dear all,
Please excuse me as I am new to this forum however here ismy question.
I have a excel file with strings in column A.
A button on that sheet that is linked to the code below.
What it should do is find each string in a pdf file I selectafter using the button.
I don’t see the pdf file when the ribbon open file menu opens.
I am using excel 2016 and adobe reader dc.
I am no expert in vba,found this code
