OnTime method only runs 1 time

Hi
I have a macro that runs a sub at a specific time. I have
set up a local macro that sets the timer when the workbook
is first opened to run a global macro at a specific time.
I often don't check the computer where this workbook is
for days at a time so I want to be able to just open the
workbook once and have the macro run every day at 3:00.
The local code is:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim Activate_Online_Historical As String
Application.OnTime _
earliestTime:=TimeValue("15:00:00"), _
Procedu="Activate_Online_Historical"
End Sub
Id suggest using the CustomProperties collection of the workbook
example
Public Sub SaveHistoricalTime(OpenTime as String)
On Error Resume Next
ActiveWorkbook.CustomDocumentProperties("OnTime"). Delete
ActiveWorkbook.CustomDocumentProperties.Add Name:="OnTime",
LinkToContent:=False, _
Type:=msoPropertyTypeString, value:=OpenTime
End Sub
This will be saved with the workbook
