Hello all,
When I try to use MSG.exe in VBA with VBA.Interaction.Shell, I get "File not
found". When I use MSG.EXE from a command window, everything works fine.
Anyone know what is going on? Has anyone come across this? Anyone know how
to get this to work or know of a work-around?
Thanks for any help anyone can provide,
CTB
Take a look at using VBA's Shell() function -OR- the ShellExecute() API
function. Note that both require a full path and filename!
Example:
Shell "fullpath\MSG.exe" 'starts MSG app
