Launch a program from Excel

N

Nigel

I am trying to call a batch file from within excel but cannot get the syntax
right

this is what I am using

Application.Run "c:\maxl\batch\inflation.bat"

syntax is wrong somewhere as it says it cannot find the macro

Application.Run is for a macro. You probably want to use the Shell command:
Shell "c:\maxl\batch\inflation.bat"
