I have a macro in Personal.xlsb called Public Sub Get_Name(shName As String)

When I use below sub to call Get_Name from Personal.xlsb, I get an error at the Application.Run "Personal.xlsb!Get_Name(shName)"

Code:
Public Sub Set_Name()
    Dim shName As String
    shName = ActiveSheet.Name
[B]     Application.Run "Personal.xlsb!Get_Name(shName)"[/B]
End Sub

If I remove the variable from Get_Name macro and use Application.Run "Personal.xlsb!Get_Name", it runs ok. Any help on how to get it to work with the variable?

Thanks in advance for the help
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Code:
  Application.Run "Personal.xlsb!Get_Name", ActiveSheet.Name
