How to call a macro in a different file

I need to be able to call a macro that is located within another file. It's no problem to call another macro that is within the same file, but as my project grows, it becomes too large and cumbersome. I need to find some way to call a macro within another file.
Say, for example I have two workbooks (FileA and FileB). Within FileA I have a macro (MacroA). At some point within that code, I need to call a macro located in FileB named MacroB.

Is this possible?
Is it possible to do with VB Script?

TIA,
DejaVu

In the past I have created a custom toolbar and linked the macros from
another workbook to it, to perform actions

Thanks Crowbar... but I could not get your link to work.

I know how to have different buttons call macros from different workbooks, but while my code is executing, I need it to call a macro from another workbook.

assuming FileB.xls is open

application.Run "FileB.xls!MacroB"

see help on the Run command for details.
