Yeah if you have the whole code how to do that for pdf and excel that would be great. It doesnt seem as simple as just typing the file path.
Im using this command for exporting the workbook wb.SaveAs
and this one for the pdf
Dim pdfName As String, FullName As String, sht As Worksheet and fullname path

Try these:
Sub SaveWorkbook2Desktop()
Dim Wb As Workbook
Dim sPath As String
Dim sFile As String
Set Wb = ActiveWorkbook ' or a specific open workbook
sPath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SpecialFolders("Desktop")
sFile = Wb.Name ' or specify another name
Wb.SaveAs Filename:=sPath & "\" & sFile
End Sub
Sub SavePDF2Desktop()
Dim Ws As Worksheet
Dim sPath As String
Dim sFile As String
Set Ws = ActiveSheet ' or a specific sheet
sPath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SpecialFolders("Desktop")
sFile = Ws.Name ' or specify another name
Ws.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=sPath & "\" & sFile
End Sub
