CALL Function Explained

The CALL function in Microsoft Excel allows users to run a macro from within a worksheet. It takes two arguments: the name of the macro to be run and an optional reference to a cell containing the macro. The CALL function is useful for running macros that are stored in a different worksheet or workbook.
