Hello All,

How can we know whether the excel file is opened from a batch file accessed through Command prompt Or manually by double click.
Need to call different functions based upon this condition.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Rahul

Just found the solution to old problem. Sharing here for others...

Code:
 arrayArgs = Split(CmdLine, "/e/")

 If UBound(arrayArgs) > 0 Then        'Get the string Paramters
        arg_exist = True
    Else
        'There are no parameters; Opened manually
        arg_exist = False
    End If
