I was trying to automate VBA run with its file opening from command line as below:
cmd.exe /C set MacroName=MyMacro \& EXCEL.EXE C:\\_documents\\Book2.xlsm
The VBA scripts and files are as follows:
Book2.xlsm/Module1
Sub MyMacro()
MsgBox "MyMacro is running..."
End Sub
Book2.xlsm/ThisWorkbook
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim strMacroName As String
strMacroName = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Environment("process").Item("MacroName")
If strMacroName <> "" Then Run strMacroName
End Sub
Now, the above cmd command does work, expectedly notifies me with the MsgBox, when Excel is not open. But it does not work when Excel is already being open with other project/file(s).
How can I make this work?
The problem was that when you launch an Excel file in the already open Excel instance passing environment variables through cmd.exe or command line does not work correctly for some reason, rather than as a VBA-side problem.
I'm still not sure this is a bug or I'm doing wrong something. I appreciate that if someone would help to solve my wondering.
