VBA.Interaction.Shell ("msg.exe") = Run-time error '53': File Not found
Using:
Windows 7 Professional x64 MS Excel 2010 (x32) Hello all, When I try to use MSG.exe in VBA with VBA.Interaction.Shell, I get "File not found". When I use MSG.EXE from a command window, everything works fine. Anyone know what is going on? Has anyone come across this? Anyone know how to get this to work or know of a work-around? Thanks for any help anyone can provide, CTB |
