Can my book activate book2 on computer2?

[adnakarivach]

Hello, is it possible to have my active workbook open a second workbook in my computer number 2 (in the same network) with the MACROS ALREADY ACTIVE?)
I am trying to control computer usage and i have a workbook with a timer that I scavanged from old post, wich after a set time it would activate a sheet in computer #2 telling my kid is quitting time.
any comments or help?
i have the code for everything, except the link to open 2nd book with macros active.
thanks ray:

Windows 2000 or XP Pro or any windows server. You can use COM/DCOM/ or COM+. Also remote scripting.

What OS's are you using?

Well thank you guys for all the thoughts and ideas.
I will play around with the "shared workbook" see where that takes me.
I have done (and seen) wonderful things with excel, I guess I reached the limit.
Thank you again.
