Launching a batch file
 

Is it possible to launch a batch file from within an Excel macro. If so what
is the command I need in VBA assuming the batch file is in
c:\belfry\convert.bat
Thank you

Launching a batch file
 

Take a look at VBA's help for Shell.

Use the Shell command. E.g.,

Shell "c:\belfry\convert.bat", vbNormalFocus
