    Re: Batch file to run excel macro

    Thanks however my refresh macro accesses a form which runs sql codes and updates the pivot tables on the worksheets. So if I put this code in the THisworkbook section it will not work because not everyone had db access. This batch is just for a few employees I don't want the batch to execute each time the workbook opens, I only want it execute when the refreshALL macro is called. Can yu assist

    Anyone knows how to access a macro from a batch file and make it to where , only the person running the batch can access the macro, otherwise the speadsheet can viewed without triggering the macro to run when they open the spreadsheet. I am using excel. 2010
