Good Morning!

I have vba that purges data for public posting, then saves each tab (named range) as a separate pdf to combine & post to the web. I'm getting a Run-time error '1004' "This formula is missing a range or a defined name" on Named Range(Table_7), on Tab "Table 7", when trying to save the tab to a pdf.

I tested the macro in the 1701 (January) through 1706 (June) files & it works, copied the macro to the 1707 (July), 1708 (August), 1709 (September), etc. files & it fails on Table_7.... same number of rows & columns in the named range.

When I take out the offending section, the macro works fine on all other pages... does anyone have any suggestions?

Code:
[CODE]    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs filename:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Worksheets("Data Entry").Range("e14"), _
    FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
    Range("A1").Select
    Application.Goto Reference:="Cover"
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, filename:= _
        ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Cover.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
    Range("A1").Select
    Application.Goto Reference:="Table_8"
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, filename:= _
        ThisWorkbook.Path & "\8.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
    Range("A1").Select

        False
    Range("A1").Select
    Application.Goto Reference:="Table_3"
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, filename:= _
        ThisWorkbook.Path & "\3.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
    Range("A1").Select
    Application.Goto Reference:="Table_2"
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, filename:= _
        ThisWorkbook.Path & "\2.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
    Range("A1").Select
    Application.Goto Reference:="Table_1"
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, filename:= _
        ThisWorkbook.Path & "\1.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
        False
        Range("A1").Select
        Sheets("Data Entry").Select
    Range("C4").Select    
End Sub
