How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
It's not clear whether U want to combine I6 & I7 (or viceversa) into one file name....
Code:
Dim FileName As String
'combime I7 & I6
FileName = CStr(Range("I7").Value) & CStr(Range("I6").Value)
'****OR***
'combime I6 & I7
FileName = CStr(Range("I6").Value) & CStr(Range("I7").Value)

ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, FileName:= _
 "C:\Users\scottnay\Desktop\Test\Quote" & FileName & ".PDF", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
 IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=True

It seems more likely that U want to choose between I6 and I7...
Code:
Dim FileName As String
'Use either I6 or I7
If MsgBox(prompt:="Do You want I6 file? (No = I7)", Buttons:=vbYesNo, Title:="Select file") = vbYes Then
FileName = CStr(Range("I6").Value)
Else
FileName = CStr(Range("I7").Value)
End If
ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, FileName:= _
 "C:\Users\scottnay\Desktop\Test\Quote" & FileName & ".PDF", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
 IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=True
U really should properly identify your ranges with the sheet name. For example...
Code:
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("I7").Value
