[F8] Step by step in another application

[Gérard Ducouret]

Hello,
I have a VBA macro in Word. This macro opens Excel, then runs another macro
in Excel.
Is it possible to check step by step (F8 ?) the macro which is in Excel ?
Thanks

Gérard

Why not just try it?

I already tried with F8, which doesn't work
I'll try Ctrl + Shift + F8

Hi Gérard,

You might need to try setting a break point (F9) in the Excel procedure in
the Excel VB Editor before running the macro. That could stop the code
execution, once it starts, so that you can continue with F8.
