Hello all,

I am wondering if it is possible to run a .BAT file from
within a macro in excel. Basically, the .BAT
file "creates" the text file that my macro imports. I
want, as the first step in the macro, to run the .BAT file
and then continue with the text import. As it is now, I
have to leave excel, manually run the .BAT file, and then
run the macro to import the text file. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Trevor
