I'm curious what the community has to say about this:

Which option would be considered Best Practice for calling multiple subs? Aside from speed, which I'm not overly concerned about, does one have an advantage over the other? Why?

Option A:

Code:
Sub CallingAllSubs()

   Call Sub2
   Call Sub3
   Call Sub4
   Call Sub5

End Sub

Option B:

Code:
Sub CallOneSub()

   Call Sub2
   Call Sub3

End Sub

Sub Sub3()

   Call Sub4
   Call Sub5

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
Generally there is NO difference.

If your situation doesn't really demand "Option B" I would suggest always go for option A. ( why you give two button if one button does your job).

Thanks MUKESHY,

I guess it wasn't the best example. It should have been more like this:

Code:
Sub Sub1()

   Call Sub2
   Call Sub3

End Sub

Sub Sub4()

   Call Sub5
   Call Sub6

End Sub


I've used the example above when I have a conditional statement where I may need user input. I guess I just find it easier to isolate & work with while testing.
