Hi, really stuck. Thought I had written the code correctly but when I click
on my command button to run my macro, it comes up with 'Object required'.
When I click on Tools and then Macros, my macro on there is called
Sheet1.RemoveThem

My code looks like this - where have I gone wrong?
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command1_Click

Dim stMacroName As String

stMacroName = "Sheet1.RemoveThem"
DoCmd.RunMacro stMacroName

Exit_Command1_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_Command1_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command1_Click

End Sub

Thanks for any help

Try changing

DoCmd.RunMacro stMacroName

to

Application.Run stMacroName

Is this code in the same worksheet module that owns the commandbutton (Sheet1)?

If yes, you could just call the macro directly:

Option Explicit
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call RemoveThem
End Sub
Sub RemoveThem()
MsgBox "hi"
End Sub

And if the removeme procedure is in a different worksheet module than the
commandbutton_click:


Behind the sheet with the commandbutton:
Option Explicit
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call Sheet1.RemoveThem
End Sub

Behind Sheet1:
Option Explicit
Sub RemoveThem()
MsgBox "hi"
End Sub

Application.run doesn't make a lot of sense here -- unless you're building the
name of the procedure or the procedure is hidden/private.
