Running Access Macro from Excel
I've got the following code that I would like to use to open an Access Macro
from excel however I am getting a compile error -"User defined type not defined": Sub AccessTest1() Dim AccApp As Access.Application Set AccApp = CreateObject("Access.Application") Set AccApp.OpenCurrentDatabase ("C:\2008MRD.mdb")= AccApp.DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro2" AccApp.Quit End Sub Any suggestions as to what I should add/change? Thanks. -- Bob |

Running Access Macro from Excel
I've not run Access macros from Excel, but I'd bet you need to add a
Reference to Access. In the VBA, try Tools - References - I'd guess it's Microsoft Access ... SInce I don't have Access loaded on this machine, I can't give any more specifics. -- HTH, Barb Reinhardt "Bob" wrote: I've got the following code that I would like to use to open an Access Macro from excel however I am getting a compile error -"User defined type not defined": Sub AccessTest1() Dim AccApp As Access.Application Set AccApp = CreateObject("Access.Application") Set AccApp.OpenCurrentDatabase ("C:\2008MRD.mdb")= AccApp.DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro2" AccApp.Quit End Sub Any suggestions as to what I should add/change?

Running Access Macro from Excel
Try this:
Sub AccessTest1() Dim AccApp As Object Set AccApp = CreateObject("Access.Application") ' Just to show you that it's working AccApp.Visible = True AccApp.OpenCurrentDatabase ("C:\2008MRD.mdb") AccApp.DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro2" AccApp.Quit End Sub -- Malik "Bob" wrote: I've got the following code that I would like to use to open an Access Macro from excel however I am getting a compile error -"User defined type not defined": Sub AccessTest1() Dim AccApp As Access.Application Set AccApp = CreateObject("Access.Application") Set AccApp.OpenCurrentDatabase ("C:\2008MRD.mdb")= AccApp.DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro2" AccApp.Quit End Sub Any suggestions as to what I should add/change?
