[TD="class: votecell"][/TD]
[TD="class: postcell"]I have built an extensive program for my organization which periodically needs to be updated.
I have tried having a macro that deletes all the old macros except itself and then reimports from a central repository but I run into a naming problem.
Source code below. I have reference location in the excel worksheet that it pulls from opens the reference workbook. The macro deletes the old macro and then imports the new. The problem is that even though the old macro has been deleted it still names the file with a two. How do I get it to reset back to the original name.
My go to source has been http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/Topic.aspx http://what-when-how.com/excel-vba/creating-excel-add-ins/
Code:
