    VBA XML Ribbon Callback to xlam Class Instance?

    I'm building an xlam add-in and whilst I'm able to callback to standard module subs, I'd like to be able to callback to an instance of a class module

    I'd tried something like the below, but it didn't work - any idea if it's possible?

    Code:
    <customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui"> 
      <ribbon> 
        <tabs> 
          <tab id="TestTab" label="TestTab"> 
    	<group id="TestGroup" label="Test Group">
              <button id="TestButton" label="Test" onAction="'MyAddIn.xlam'!ThisWorkbook.TestClassInstance.TestSub"/>
    	</group>
          </tab> 
        </tabs> 
      </ribbon> 
    </customUI>

    to an instance of a class module
    i would believe you should have the class instance held in a variable in your public module
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    doesn't seem to matter where I put the class instance, I've tried both in ThisWorkbook and in a module - it says i can't find the macro.

    Also tried referring to the class instance without the location of where it's declared, but that didn't work either:
    Code:
    'MyAddIn.xlam'!TestClassInstance.TestSub
