Where did you found this?

I tried this way and it worked:
----------------------------
Sub CallDispatch1
Dim mNoArgs()
oDispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
sMacroURL = "macro:///Standard.Module1.ShowMessage(%22ciao%22)"
oDispatcher.executeDispatch(StarDesktop, sMacroURL, "", 0, mNoArgs())
End Sub
Sub ShowMessage(msg As String)
Msgbox msg
End Sub
----------------------------

AFAIK, when you call a macro using the dispatch, the corresponding library is
loaded automatically

Although it shouldn't be necessary, you can load a library in this way:
----------------------------
Sub TestLibraries
oLibContainer = _
CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.script.ApplicationScriptLibraryContainer")
If Not oLibContainer.isLibraryLoaded( "Gimmicks" ) Then
oLibContainer.loadLibrary ( "Gimmicks" )
End If
End Sub
----------------------------
Or, if you prefer, this version does not use oobasic shortcuts:
----------------------------
Sub TestLibraries
oLibContainer = _
CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.script.ApplicationScriptLibraryContainer")
If Not oLibContainer.isLibraryLoaded( "Gimmicks" ) Then
oLibContainer.loadLibrary ( "Gimmicks" )
End If
End Sub
----------------------------

AFAIK this is not possible
