Hello,

If I run the below command in the terminal it creates the file output.txt with helloworld, but if I run it from VBA it does not create the file

result = Shell("/bin/bash -c 'echo holamundo' > /Users/<USER>/Downloads/ChatPDF/output.txt")

Can you please let me know what's missing?
thanks
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Could be, but I did check the folder and Excel and everything and it seems that has all the access. The issue that was working last week, and now is not working but I did not receive any upgrade/update. Do u have any other idea to check?
