    2007 menu access via vba - acrobat

    Hello there,

    we created a very cool excel sheet here at the office for the boss, with several info he needs. We want to create a pdf from this excel, but wait! it has to be via de Pdf Button at the menu and not the "Adobe PDF" Printer, because the document contains links in the worksheets that have to keep on working as pdf.

    In Excel 2003 i managed to get to work it like this:

    You don't ned Adobe in Excel 2007, there's a PDF addin that you can download

    Excel 2007 does not support ToolBars, the buttons will be in the addins tab
    Hope that helps.

    Hi, thanks to the advice. But we are not allowed to install any software at the office, so sadly this does not work for me.

    The addin tab should show if you have any addins installed. Try just activating the Analysis ToolPak addin which is usually installed automatically, see this

    If you have SP2 installed for Office 2007, then the ability to save as PDF is built-in and does not require an addin. You just need to use the Exportasfixedformat method:
