Calling a sub from a addin in vba

[Roger]

I have created an addin from a sub() that I wrote in vba.

Now I want to create a button that runs the sub.

What must I put in the macro run box?

Addin name : addin
Project name : project
sub name : work()

Thanks

Roger,

Immediate way

Application.Run "Work"

Better way,

set a reference to the addin in Tools>References, and then just call it like
any other sub.

Hmm

I want to make it so that the user can run the program at
any time, from any workbook. As they get a dump from
another program and this will sort it out into how they
want it.

Maybe I just misunderstood what you said.. could you
re-word it please then

Thanks

Roger,

As it is an addin, you will need to install it on each machine that you want
to run from, agreed? I also assume that you don't want to set a reference to
the addin in each workbook, so the immediate way is best.

That being so, I assume you know how to create a button and add a macro call
from there. Let's assume that the button macro is called "RogersSub".

The code for "RogersSub" would look something akin to

Sub RogersSub()
Application.Run "Work"
End Sub

That should do it.

As an addendum to Bob's comment, you can reference the add-
in as follows

Application.Run "addin.xla!Work"
