Can you create an add-in that runs an .exe in the
background? If so, is there an example of how to do so.

Thanks,
Noel
 
You can use the Shell command to run an exe program.

I want to store a file containing macros on a shared drive on a network
I was told that if I saved the appropriate workbook file as an .xl
file, and then had each network user, in an .xls file, click-o
Tools>Add-Ins and activate the add-in, that the macros would b
accessible for such user.

It's not working out that way. Excel wants to store the add-in
folder under Documents and Settings, and under the username. Also
whichever workbook is first opened, even a blank Book1, the name o
that file is inserted before the path of the shared drive. Lastly, th
.xla is written to the shared drive as a hidden file.

My desire is to link individual macros to Custom Menu Buttons on th
Standard Toolbar for each user.

Can anyone help?
