Hi All,

Is there any way to move an workbook from one instance of the excel
application to another?

I have been looking at using the ByRef method of calling a sub in the
second instance from the first instance and using the workbook as the
argument ByRef, and then killing it in the first instance, but this
does not appear to work.

Any ideas would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Alan.

You'll have to open the workbook in the same instance to run that macro.

But you could open it readonly, run the code, close without saving.
