    Call DirectorFormat is giving me the error. I've also tried Call DirectorCopyFormat.DirectorFormat (DirectorCopyFormat is the module Directorformat sits in) but that gives me the same error. What am I doing wrong?

    Re: Call Sub

    You can't use Call if the macro is in another workbook, unless you have set a reference to that workbook's project. However, you can just use Application.Run instead.

    Cool Re: Call Sub

    Thanks for your response. I tried:

    Application.Run (DirectorFormat)

    in place of Call DirectorFormat but I got a "variable not defined" error. Do I need to define a path to DirectorFormat or can I include the path in Application.Run?
