Hi. Just a tip. You have to declare each var in a line.
Dim exePath, scriptPath As String --> exePath is Variant, scriptPath is String.
The same with dates.
I like the style where you explain it simply and get to the point.
And I like that you're making Dim statements line before the first use and don't couple it to the start of the function.

I *WORSHIP* you! No other example I found noted to include that space in the call!

Thank you for the help. A quick note would be that sometimes python script gives an error or cmd window closes without running the code. If you want to see the error you can add "cmd /k" to the start of the Shell.run like this:

Shell.Run "cmd /k" & " " & exePath & " " & ...

This helped me a lot so I am sharing :) Nice video series by the way, i was able to do my project.

Hello community, my code worked after I put three quotation marks at each side of either the Python executable path and the Python script path, regardless the presence or not of spaces between the characters.
Thanks for the sharing.

Looking for the follow up video! I'd like store the results and modify the excel file using the stored results

[estanka]

if I'm using Pycharm, how do I setup the start?

I read date from cell and passed the string to my python script via shell in VBA. One thing I had to do was put " " " " (x4) on each side of my date_string variable. This is because there is a space in the date_string variable. (Similar to file path with spaces). Then in my python script, I strip the extra quotes on the date_string variable. I use sys.argv[1].strip('\"') I thought this comment may help others.

Error: Method 'Run' of object 'IWshShell3' failed

Mine runs successfully but it doesn't stop for user input like 3:13. So the command prompt appears on the screen less than a second maybe millisecond and then just closes itself. Because the command prompt closes itself so fast, it looks like the program doesn't do anything.
