I tried reading on this group and others about using Application.Run.
Basically, I am trying to have one workbook run a macro that is in
another workbook. I can get the "Master" workbook to call the macro in
the other workbook, but when the code is finished I want it to finish
running the code back in the Master Workbook (like a normal call
would). Is there a way to do this?

Here is my code from the "Slave" workbook:



Public Sub Saveaftereview()
If IsEmpty(Range("A25").Value) Then
Dim startingname As String
startingname = "Position Control-" & Range("A50").Value & "-" &
Range("B50").Value & "-" & Range("C50").Value & ".xls"
Dim myFileName As Variant
myFileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename _
(InitialFileName:="c:\" & startingname)

Else

myFileName = Range("A25").Value
End If

If myFileName = False Then
'user hit cancel
Else
Sheets("Save Page").Visible = False

Sheets("Travelers Worksheet").Select
ActiveSheet.Buttons(1).Select
selection.OnAction = "Addworksheet"
Range("A7").Select



'Added as of January 10th 2006
Sheets("LOA Worksheet").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 1").Select
selection.OnAction = "Addworksheet"
Range("A4").Select
Sheets("Job Postings Worksheet").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 1").Select
selection.OnAction = "Addworksheet"


Range("A4").Select


Sheets("Position Control").Select
Call protector
Range("A13").Select
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=myFileName, FileFormat:=xlNormal
ActiveWorkbook.Close

End If


End Sub


In the Master it reads something like Application.Run (Name of the
file)!Saveafterreview


Any thoughts?

Aren't you closing the book with the code in it, thereby effectively
aborting the code?

Yes, yes I am. I sware I tried the code without that in it and still
had the same problem, but I messed with the code and it works now.
Thanks!
