Excel Macro Vba Calling macro visual basic procedures of a different project [Q]
I have different excel macro VBA procedures in different excel workbooks and I need to call a procedure from one workbook to another. How can I do this? How is the right syntaxis?
I appreciate any help.

Application.Run “‘another book2.xls’!test_msgbox”
Another method is to set a reference from the workbook that needs to call the function to the workbook that contains the function. In the excel vba editor, open the workbook that contains the functions. Go to the Tools menu and choose “VBA Project Properties”. In that dialog, change the name from “VBAProject” to something meaningful, like “MyFunctions”. Save that workbook. Then open the workbook that is going call upon the functions, go to the Tools menu, choose References, and select “MyFunctions” in the list.
Once you have that reference in place, you can call functions in the
“MyFunctions” project as if they were native VBA functions, without any qualifiers.

The main drawback of APPLICATION.RUN, aside from the fact that it’s very verbose, is that it won’t pass objects as arguments.
For anything past a very trivial complexity level, setting a reference is the way to go.
Have another excel answer or questions for this problem ?
