WNetGetUniversalName - how to implement in VBA?
I have a workbook on a network directory. I also happen to have the network
directory mapped on my machine, but various users may have it mapped
differently, or not at all.
I need to verify (on open) that the workbook is still located in the network
directory, and that someone hasn't moved it or saved a copy elsewhere,
because the data they enter needs to be available to all users.
I tried activeworkbook.path, fullname, and curdir, but all of those just
gave me my mapped drive letter (w:)
I did a google search and it looks like WNetGetUniversalName translates the
local path to the full network path, but for the life of me I can't get it
to work in VBA. Does anyone have a code snippet that implements this that
they would be willing to share?
Thanks,
Keith
