Default Run Excel macro from Win 10 Run box?

I can open an Excel workbook from the Run box with
C:\Users\terry\Walks\WalkIndex.xlsm

But how do I add parameters so that it will then run a specific macro
please?

Use that workbook's Workbook_Open event to Call the macro, OR use an Auto_Open
Sub (better) in a standard module to setup what should happen when the file
opens.

Note that Auto_Open() is the *replacement* for the Workbook_Open event, and
should be companioned with an Auto_Close() Sub which is the *replacement* for
the Workbook_BeforeClose event.

If you have several macros and wish to specify which to run, you could have a
popup list to choose from.

OR

If you want individual executables from say a desktop folder, instead of using
Excel macros just run a vbScript file (e.g.: Macro1.vbs) to do same as your
macro would do.
