close doc and call next macro

[Michelle Hanan]

I have a series of macros in one module. I need them to run one right after
the other and for each one to close without saving. The macros are in excel
and merge data from an excel worksheet into word documents. I'm not sure
what codes to use or where to put them. Here are two of the macros so you
can get an idea of what I am trying to do.

Sub Ecology()
Dim wdApp As Object
Dim myDoc As Object
Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set myDoc =
wdApp.Documents.Open("\\powervault2\home_pl\common\Referrals\Referal
Agency - Ecology.doc")
ActiveDocument.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = wdFormLetters
ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource Name:= _
"\\powervault2\home_pl\common\Referrals\Referals.xls", _
ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:=False, LinkToSource:=True, _
AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", PasswordTemplate:="",
_
WritePasswordDocument:="", WritePasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False,
_
Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, Connection:= _
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Password="""";User ID=Admin;Data
Source=\\powervault2\home_pl\common\Referrals\Referals.xls;Mode=Read;Extended
Properties=""HDR=YES;IMEX=1;"";Jet OLEDB:System database="""";Jet
OLEDB:Registry Path="""";Jet OLEDBatabase Pa" _
, SQLStatement:="SELECT * FROM `Sheet1$`", SQLStatement1:="",
SubType:= _
wdMergeSubTypeAccess
With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToPrinter
.SuppressBlankLines = True
With .DataSource
.FirstRecord = wdDefaultFirstRecord
.LastRecord = wdDefaultLastRecord
End With
.Execute Pause:=False
End With
End Sub

Sub BuildingFireSafety()
Dim wdApp As Object
Dim myDoc As Object
Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set myDoc =
wdApp.Documents.Open("\\powervault2\home_pl\common\Referrals\Referal
Agency - Building & Fire Safety.doc")
ActiveDocument.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = wdFormLetters
ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource Name:= _
"\\powervault2\home_pl\common\Referrals\Referals.xls", _
ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:=False, LinkToSource:=True, _
AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", PasswordTemplate:="",
_
WritePasswordDocument:="", WritePasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False,
_

End With
.Execute Pause:=False
End With
End Sub

Michelle,

I'm not quite sure if I follow what you are trying to do, but if you want these 2 macros to together one right after the other, I
would create a new macro that calls these 2 from within it. Something like this:

Sub MainMacro()
Ecology
BuildingFireSafety
End Sub

Then all you would have to do is run this MainMacro. If you have more macros you want to run, just add their names to this
MainMacro in the order that you want them to run.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "I need them to run one right after the other and for each one to close without saving." Do you
want the Word Documents you are working with to close w/o saving? If that is the case, then ad the following line to each macro
(probably at the very end):

myDoc.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges

I hope this helps,

Conan
