Saved from a previous post (but very similar to your question about clicking a
commandbutton on a different worksheet in the SAME workbook).
(The original poster used the names of Harry and George for his/her
commandbuttons. You'll want to modify them to match your names. The button
Harry "clicked" the button George.)
You have at least a couple of choices.
This is the code I used under the Sheet2 module.
Option Explicit
Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub
Notice that the Private keyword is gone. That's so the "Call" can find the
procedure.
This is the code under the Sheet1 module:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Call Sheet2.George_Click
End Sub
=========
Another way:
Under Sheet2:
Option Explicit
Private Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub
Notice that the Private keyword is back.
And under Sheet1:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Application.Run "Sheet2.George_Click"
End Sub
(in both of these cases, that Sheet2 is the code name for the sheet--not the
name you see in excel on the sheet tab.)
=======
And one more way:
Under Sheet2:
Option Explicit
Private Sub George_Click()
MsgBox "hi from George"
End Sub
Under Sheet1:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Harry_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet2").OLEObjects("George").Object.V alue = True
End Sub

My problem is the same as Raj's. I wish to write code in VBA to, in effect, remotely click a command button on a different worksheet. I needd a bit more guidance than "see help for Application.Run". I don't even know where to find that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Macro code for clicking on Command Button in another workbook
Hi,
I have a workbook with macros. The macros open another workbook with
macros created by another person with code protected. A sheet in that
workbook has a command button that is to be clicked to run the macros
in that workbook. Is there a programmatic way by which I can click the
command button from my workbook macro code?
Thanks in Advance for the Help.
Regards,
Raj
