The VBA Shell command works but it appears that you must provide the full path of
the application you wish to run. The following example calls a bash shell script with
the contents of the current cell and changes the font to blue.
Sub call_shell()
Dim num As String * 12
num = ActiveCell.Value
Shell "/home/graham/bin/dl.sh " & num
ActiveCell.Font.ColorIndex = 5
End Sub
