title: RUN excel macro outside excel
body: <p>We have some users that download  a report in excel through a custom report manager (written in either c# or vb.net)
  Once they download the report they need to copy and paste a macro and run it to format some columns of the excel report.</p>
  
  <p>I have two questions:
  1. Can the macro be embedded in excel when they download it?so that they dont have to run it each time.. and the easier option
  2. Is there a command which they can run that executes the macro outside excel without them having to create new one each time?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
