Print to PDF

[akyhne]

ActiveDocument.PrintOut Filename:="test.pdf"

renames original Word filename to the new pdf printname when printing, but

Ny = "test.pdf"
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Filename:=Ny

does nok work!

It gives me an error 5121!

Dim Ny As String

On checking into causes for a 5121 error, I suspect that the problem maybe
that test.pdf already exists. So, try

Ny = "test.pdf"
Kill Ny
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Filename:=Ny

No, it doesn't. My string waries out of some data in the document.

I solved this way:

Y.ActiveDocument.SaveAs Filename:=Vaerdier(2) & "-" & VBA.Format(strDate,
"yyMMdd")
Y.PrintOut

So I simply renamed the file. The Word doc. itselves, is not saved this way.
but printout seems to think that this is the new name.
