Default running Access procedure from Excel

Works for me. Could this be a security issue where you need to enable macros

because it has code in it.

Hello,


I'm trying to run a procedure in access using excel VBA. I set the
access object library reference and ran this code but it hangs on the
appAcc.run command; Run-time error '440': Method 'Run' of object
'_Application' failed.


Sub GetKenyaAPRdata()
Dim appAcc As Access.Application
Set appAcc = New Access.Application
appAcc.Visible = False
appAcc.OpenCurrentDatabase ("C:\PMS\PEPFARresults.mdb")
appAcc.Run "getdata_Kenya"
appAcc.Quit
Set appAcc = Nothing
End Sub


Thanks in advance!

I have the macros enabled. This is working for me now. I was getting
an error message, but it was actually peforming the sub routine, so I
put an 'On error resume next' before the appAcc.Run "getdata_Kenya" .
Still don't know what the error is all about.

thanks again for your time.
