I have a Windows 98 Excel workbook with 2 macros in it. I want to copy these macros to the same workbook on a computer running Windows 7. The problem I keep encountering is that the Windows 98 workbook must be available on the desktop in Windows 7 in order for them to work in the new workbook. I've tried both copying and cutting the macros from the 98 version and pasting them into the Windows 7 version and either way when I run the macros in the Windows 7 version of the workbook if I have the 98 worksheet available it "wakes" that workbook up and runs the macro from there or if the 98 workbook is unavailable the macros will not run and I get a message saying the 98 workbook can't be found.
Can anyone tell me how to convert or move these macros from the Windows 98 workbook into the Windows 7 workbook and have them run as designed without having to keep a copy of the old workbook available?
