I have a task I would like to automate. It only takes a few minutes to run,
but it has to run on one particular machine on our network (hardware key),
and babysitting it through the process takes longer than the process itself.
The data generated is then used on a different machine, so there's some
walking back and forth.

What I would like to do is simply call the macro from the main spreadsheet
on my machine. Is there any way to do this? I suppose I could use an autoexec
macro in the spreadsheet, but that seems a little less than perfect (it would
be nice to be able to call one of n different versions of the macro, some
only update a few items from the whole set). I don't see a "run this macro"
command-line switch though.

Also, what is the best way to spool it? I have seen code that will run a
file on the command line, but it seems that it returns before the file has
completed running. Since I'm waiting on the data being generated before I can
continue, I'd need to pause until it completed.
