Hi,

Here's my scenario;

I have a workbook called Schedule.xls. It's purpose is to be opened on
a preferred schedule, which in turn triggers another XL file
('DailyDespatchRec.xls') to be opened & emailed as a result.
I need DailyDespatchRec.xls to be opened and automatically re-calculate
before it is sent out by email.

Within the Workbook (Schedule.xls) Open event, I have the following
code;

Dim wb As Workbook
Dim strPath As String

Dim strTo As String
Dim strCC As String
Dim strBodyTxt As String
Dim strSbj As String


strTo = "
strCC = "
strBodyTxt = "This text appears as the body of the email"
strSbj = "This text appears as the Subject line (dated " &
Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy")

strPath = "C:\DailyDespatchRec.xls"

Set wb = Workbooks.Open(strPath)
Application.Run "daily despatch
rec.xls!modUtility.EmailReport", strTo, strSbj, strBodyTxt, strCC,
strPath
strPath)
wb.Close True
End Sub

What it's supposed to do is run a Sub (named 'EmailReport') in another
Workbook (DailyDespatchRec.xls).
The Sub 'EmailReport' is in a standard module ('modUtility') - the code
is listed at bottom of post.

When I open Schedule.xls, I get an error 'Code execution interupted'.

When I click 'Continue' on the error msg box, I get the following
message;

'The macro 'daily despatch rec.xls!modUtility.EmailReport' cannot be
found'

When I click 'Debug' it highlights at the following line;

Application.Run "daily despatch rec.xls!modUtility.EmailReport", strTo,
strSbj, strBodyTxt, strCC, strPath
strPath)

Can anyone point me off as to how I can resolve this as I'm very close
to tears and at the very advanced stages of brain bruising!

Thanks in advance.

Phil


The EmailReport code - BTW I use this code very successfully from
within Access applications and know it works, unfortunately I cannot
accomplish my aims with Access and Excel is my vehicle.

Phil,

I've had the same issue while trying to automate the updating of several
files. The syntax to the Application.Run command is where I (and I think you)
ran into trouble. Try out the following line in your code instead of the
current Run command:

Application.Run "'" & strPath & "'" & "!EmailReport", strTo, strSbj,
strBodyTxt, strCC, strPath

After the .Run, that is a double quote, single quote, double quote. I think
all that you need is the file name, the procedure name, and then the
parameters; the module name doesn't seem to be necessary.

Hi Cory,

Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding - I view via Google
Groups at work!

Many, many thanks for pointing me off in the right direction, the
suggestion worked and it does exactly as it should!
To be truthful, I would never of considered the format suggested, so
you have prevented me from bashing my head to oblivion!

Once again a sincere thanks, it is very much appreciated!

Best regards,

Phil
