Sub AllFiles()
    Dim folderPath As String
    Dim filename As String
    Dim wb As Workbook
  
    folderPath = "O:\1Paolo\360 CATERING\RECEPE AND COSTING\RECEPES\"
    
    If Right(folderPath, 1) <> "\" Then folderPath = folderPath + "\"
    
    filename = Dir(folderPath & "*.xlsm")
    Do While filename <> ""
      Application.ScreenUpdating = True
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open(folderPath & filename)
         
        'Call a subroutine here to operate on the just-opened workbook
        Call refresh_recipe
        DoEvents
        Call index_update
        DoEvents
        
        
        filename = Dir

Perhaps try (there are single quotes around the workbook name, which is necessary if there are spaces - but, I don't think it will hurt anything if your workbook name does not have spaces).

Application.Run "'" & wb.name & "'!Macro_Name"

@JMB17 

thank you for your help

it works fine when i call the INDEX_UPDATE macro but it doesn't update the power query connection when it run the REFRESH_RECIPE macro. basically it should refresh the table after it opens the recipe workbooks file and then update the INDEX FILES but it doesn't perform the refresh. i tried to avoid the macro and have the connection to be refresh on the opening of the file but still it doesn't refresh the connection. it works if manually open the file. i try to slowdown the macro but no luck either.

i hope i was able to explain the issues clearly enough, im sorry but english is not my main language.

thank you again    

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sub AllFiles()
    Dim folderPath As String
    Dim filename As String
    Dim wb As Workbook
  'Application.DisplayAlerts = False

    folderPath = "O:\1Paolo\360 CATERING\RECEPE AND COSTING\RECEPES\"
    
    If Right(folderPath, 1) <> "\" Then folderPath = folderPath + "\"
    
    filename = Dir(folderPath & "*.xlsm")
    Do While filename <> ""
      Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open(folderPath & filename)
         DoEvents
        'Application.Run "'" & wb.Name & "'!refresh_recipe"
        Application.Run "'" & wb.Name & "'!index_update"
        DoEvents
        'Call a subroutine here to operate on the just-opened workbook
        'Call refresh_recipe
        'DoEvents
        'Call index_update
        'DoEvents
        'Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:15"))
        Application.Run "'" & wb.Name & "'!save"
        DoEvents
        
        filename = Dir
        ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
        
            Loop
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
End Sub

 

Is the query associated with refresh_recipe set to run in the background? If so, then the macro will be continuing before the query finishes.
thank you JMB17 i resolved with this application code
Application.CalculateUntilAsyncQueriesDone
thank you for your time, i really appreciated
