I have a working Bat file which i run from an image on my userform.

Today i needed to add another image & also a Bat file.
I copied the original Bat file code but made an just changed the path etc to reflect the new programme.

My problem is when i click on the image nothing happens in respect of the programme running.
I do see a message.
Method run of object IWishShell3 Failed.

In the Bat file i have the following.
Code: 
echo
"C:\AutoDisc\epc\.exe"

The macro code on my image is shown below.
Code: 
Sub OpenAutodisc()Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run Chr(34) & "C:\Autodisc\epc.Bat" & Chr(34), 0
Set WshShell = Nothing


End Sub

When i debug this line is shown in yellow.
Code: 
WshShell.Run Chr(34) & "C:\Autodisc\epc.Bat" & Chr(34), 0

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
