Hi all,

Can anyone provide me a solution on connecting other applications apart from Microsoft through VBA.
There is a proprietary application that we use in our organisation which We need to install from software Center. Shell works for Microsoft application but I am not able to figure out how to connect to this application that we use.
Tried giving the path as well but nothing seems to work.
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Shell command should still work. ie

VBA Code:
Sub OpenApp()

Shell ("C:\MyProgramFolder\MyProgram.exe")

End Sub
