Default Run a macro of another workbook

Hello
Is it possible to open a book and make some of its macros run by code?, I
just can activate the macro editor in the macro i'm interest to run but i
can't make it run. My situation is like this: I have a workbook with a
button that opens another book which contain a macro i need to run in

order
to find a value but I can't figure how to make it run without inserting

the
code of that macro in my project code and repeat a code that is in the
workbook i just have opened.
Could someone help me, please

Default Run a macro of another workbook

Hello everyone
I think i was misunderstood but anyway someone has just answered the same
without specifically asking for it, but thanks anyway, it's a wonderfull

Here's The Answer i found and forgive my grammar


Syntax 1 and Syntax 2 assume that the macros are either in the same
WorkBook or that there is a Reference to the WorkBook containing the
macros.

To set a reference to another WorkBook : If the WorkBook containing
the macro to run is not open, open the WorkBook. Alt-F11 to access
VBE. Ctrl-R to activate Project Explorer. Select the project of the
macro that does the called. Tools References. Check the name of the
project that contains the called macros.

Syntax 1

Call MacroName ' No parameters
Call MacroName (param1, param2) ' Parameters

Syntax 2

MacroName ' No parameters
MacroName param1, param2 ' Parameters

Syntax 3 assumes that the WorkBook contaning the called macros is
open, but that there are no References to that WorkBook.

Application.Run "'FileName.xls'!MacroName"
' No parameters

Application.Run "'FileName.xls'!MacroName", param1, param2
' Parameters

Here are some WebSites that offer info on writing VBA code (aka
creating macros) :

the way, Im not very experienced with macros as you might be able to
tell).
