We have files which contain management information, alway have the same
names and art stored in a known location on the intranet - eg

http://thepulse/_uklife/_services/_m.../SBB%20MMM.xls

Is there any way I can get Excel to find out the last saved date of
these files, so I can compare with known saved dates and thus automate
the updating of local reports IF the data has changed?
