Hello Experts,
Is it possible to have a command button that when selected would open 2 tabs/pages (1 at a time I'm sure), take a screen shot and then save it to a folder?
It would open up the "MAIN" page take a screen shot and save it as the file name (Indianwood Quota.xlsm) in a .jpeg format to C:Indianwood Quota\Screenshots and then open up the 2nd tab/page called "VinE Cup" and do the same thing...screenshot/file save?

Ideally if I could put it inside of this existing VBA that I use to save the file after each round.

Sub SaveWithTodaysDate()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs ("C:\Golf\Indianwood Quota\Results\" & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AK2").Value & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AH3").Value & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AJ3").Value & ".xlsm")
Range("AA3") = Range("AA3") + 1

End Sub


Thank You

Don't quote whole posts. You're creating extra junk. Refer to a post number if needed.
Notice that you spelled the word main (Sheet Name) 3 different ways. ("MAIN", "Main", "main")
Re: "The screen shot would be of the whole sheet or screen"
What is it?
For Screen Shot, see suggestion by Skyybotat Post #10.
This code does the visible part of the sheet. No Ribbon, Formula Bar etc.
Code:
Sub Save_Visible_Part_Of_Sheet()
Dim sPath As String
Dim rRng As Object, sht As Object
Dim i As Long
Dim shArr
shArr = Array("MAIN", "VinE Cup") '    <----- Ensure spelling is same as Sheet names. Expand if needed
For i = LBound(shArr) To UBound(shArr)
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(shArr(i))
sPath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & shArr(i) & ".jpg"
Set rRng = sht.Range(Application.ActiveWindow.VisibleRange.Address)
rRng.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
With rRng.Parent.ChartObjects.Add(10, 10, 100, 100)
    .ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoFalse
    .Height = rRng.Height
    .Width = rRng.Width
    .Chart.Paste
    .Chart.Export Filename:=sPath, Filtername:="JPG"
    .Delete
End With
Next i
End Sub
If you want it to be run when you run the macro from Post #1, you can combine both macros or go the easy way and put the macro name in the macro from Post #1
Like so:
Code:
Sub SaveWithTodaysDate()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs ("C:\Golf\Indianwood Quota\Results\" & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AK2").Value & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AH3").Value & ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("AJ3").Value & ".xlsm")
Range("AA3") = Range("AA3") + 1
Sub Save_Visible_Part_Of_Sheet
End Sub

Does a procedure with the name of SubSaveRangeImageAsJPEGFile exist more than once in your project?

Re: "I get and error message saying... Expected End Sub with the top line of the code highlighted."
You missed the "End Sub" when you copied/pasted the code.
