  • 0

I have a macro that is on a server. I need to be able to run it from different workstations that connect to this server.

Currently I am doing:

Application.Run ("L:\database\lcmsmacro\macro1.xlsm!macro_name") 

The error message I am getting is “The macro may not be available in this workbook #1004”

I have already made sure that my security settings are set on the lowest level.

How do I run a macro from another workbook which is hosted on a different server?

would using add-ins help me?

    I think your syntax is missing the single quote characters:

    Application.Run ("'L:\database\lcmsmacro\macro1.xlsm'!macro_name") 
    

    Then, if you needed to pass parameters to it the syntax would be like this:

    Application.Run ("'L:\database\lcmsmacro\macro1.xlsm'!macro_name","param1","param2")
