Call a VBA function by string value

Question

In VBA, is there a way to call a function by string value?

For example -

Dim function_name, value1, value2 as String

value1 = "test"
value2 = "Function"
function_name = value1 & value2 ' So function name = 'testFunction'

call function_name ' But this calls a function called 'function_name', where as I require a funtion called 'testFunction'

Answer 1

Try using Application.Run to call it.

Application.Run function_name

Answer 2

Or check out CallByName from VBA itself. VB looks a little dated but it is the promise of COM realized.
