SYMPTOMSIn Microsoft Excel 97, a macro that makes a call to the RunAutoMacros method may fail. CAUSEIf you call the RunAutoMacros method more than once in the same macro, only the first call to RunAutoMacros works. Subsequent calls to run other automatic procedures ("Auto" macros) fail to execute. WORKAROUNDMicrosoft provides programming examples for illustration only, without warranty
either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of
merchantability and/or fitness for a particular purpose. This article assumes that you
are familiar with the programming language being demonstrated and the tools used to
create and debug procedures. Microsoft support professionals can help explain the functionality
of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added
functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific needs. If you have limited
programming experience, you may want to contact a Microsoft Certified Solution Provider
or the Microsoft fee-based consulting line at (800) 936-5200. For more information about

The following example demonstrates how to do this:
When you run the RunTwoAutoMacros macro, the macro instructs Microsoft
Excel to run (in order) the two macros RunAutoOpen and RunAutoClose.
Because a separate macro contains each RunAutoMacros method, each method
works correctly when you run the macro that contains it.
You can also use the following line of code to run "Auto" macros:
In this example, the line of code runs the Auto_Open macro in the active workbook.
You can use a similar line of code to run other "Auto" macros.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. MORE INFORMATION
In Microsoft Excel, you can use the RunAutoMacros method to run various
automatic procedures, such as Auto_Open and Auto_Close, that are contained
in your workbook.
