To download a file from a URL and execute it using Excel VBA, you can use the following macro:
Sub DownloadAndExecute()
Dim FileURL As String
Dim FilePath As String
Dim FileName As String
‘ Set the URL and file name
FileURL = “http://www.example.com/file.exe”
FileName = “file.exe”
‘ Set the file path
FilePath = “C:\Temp\” & FileName
‘ Download the file
URLDownloadToFile 0, FileURL, FilePath, 0, 0
‘ Execute the file
Shell FilePath, vbNormalFocus
End Sub
This macro will download the file from the specified URL and save it to the specified file path. It will then execute the file using the Shell function. Note that this macro assumes that you have already referenced the Microsoft Internet Controls and Microsoft Shell Controls and Automation libraries in your VBA project. To do this, go to the “Tools” menu in the VBA editor, select “References,” and check the boxes for these libraries.
