This has worked, but there is one problem: the Excel shell (the destination) is being renamed "output.xls" How can I prevent this from happening?

You mention objExcel.Run as a means of running a macro within Excel (I assume). I have no idea of where to look in Excel to get the rest of what I need to know in order to make this happen. Can you provide an example?

Very many TIA!
