      Well I want to copy the coding in a txt file and then paste it into the source editor for a portal window. Thats what I want the macro to do. Then I want to call up that macro in VB in Access

      Thanks

        Did you read the reply to your previous thread? Was it any help?



        Have you tried the Shell command?
        Code:
        RetVal = Shell[b]([/b]"Macro to run"[b],[/b] 1)

          Hey Steve

          It was helpful to a certain extent I just could not get it to change the HTML on the webpage...dunno why though

          I'm a VB novice so maybe thats why

            An HTML doc is just a text file: there's no reason you shouldn't be able to write out to one.

            Is the HTML doc opened by another user?

              Nope...ok so I wanna tackle this a different way...how do I open the source code and then overwrite the html code with the code that I have in my text file but only from a certain point

              Thanks
