 Thanks , tien.bui

Like you said  The problem is related to the cache mechanism used in the module that failed due to the initial Run Macro failure.

Run Macro is an Excel (License Required) action, but it looks like you're opening the workbook using the Excel (License NOT Required) version. Try opening the workbook using the Open Create Workbook (License Required) version and ensure that you stay consistent with the Excel modules.

Yeah, I tried the Open/Create workbook (Licensed Required) even I'm getting errors while executing.

Hi nivedhithas0432,
You are getting an error in the format cell action, not in the macro action, please send the whole error and configuration screenshot so that I can debug and help you.
