Gentlemen,

I am running this code via task scheduler, and the workbook is closed when it runs. At the end of the process, it gives me the following error; however, all the expected processes are perfect. I have also run the macro manually, and it works as expected. I suspect the VBS code has something wrong:

Script: "Location path of the VBS script"
Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Unknown runtime error
Code: 800A9C68
Source: Microsoft VBSScript runtime error

The following is the code:
Code:
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcel.Application.Run "'I:\Administration\Trade Compliance\Import Compliance\Trade Data\Daily Files\Master DB Daily Appends.xlsm'!Module7.Trade_Data_Daily_Process"
objExcel.DisplayAlerts = False
objExcel.Application.Quit
Set objExcel = Nothing

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
