I have a macro to format a text file and I want to save it as a pdf file when formatted. I want a macro to do the opening of the text file and the saving as a pdf file. I recorded these operations but I need to know how to input code so that the file name is not specific. I want it to ask me what file to open and what the file name should be when formatting to pdf. Here is what I recorded.
