Default Running macros from another workbook

Lance,

The argument to Run should be text.

Run "Macros.xlm!A0FormatMeans"

Having said that, the .xlm extension has me worried. Are you running Excel 4 macros?

I have a workbook called macros.xlm that is a hidden workbook that
I always open when Excel is opened.

If I have another workbook open (say Test.xls) and I create a macro
sub test()

End sub


How do I call a macro from macros.xlm from Test.xls?



I have tried:

sub test()
Run Macros.xlm!A0FormatMeans
End sub

and a few other things but just cannot figure it out.
