Qualifying sub names
 
Hi,

I used to have a workbook that my colleagues used, and now I converted it to
an add-in. I kept all the sub names, but renamed to the toolbar that calls
them. Now when my colleagues use both the add-in and the old workbook (not
that they should) the new menu calls subs from the old workbook. Is the a
way to say "use subs from ThisWorkbook"?

(I could always renames all the subs, but that's a bit of a pain).

Thanks,

Bura

Prefix the call will the name of the work book if you have a sub called
Test() in both open workbooks then:-

Call Book1!Test
Call Book2!Test

If they are in the different modules try

Call Book1!Module1.Test
Call Book1!Module2.Test

Cheers
Nigel

The problem with this is that I'm developing the adding as an regular XLS
file (MyAddin.xls) and then saving it as an add-in (MyAddin.xla). I'm
guessing that would break the links you are suggesting.

If they are in the different modules try

Call Book1!Module1.Test
Call Book1!Module2.Test
