Hi all,

for n upcoming rollout, i have a problem .

An Excel-file is to be distributed to various servers.
On all servers exists a special folder (\datafolder eg) with a fixed
name.The distributed file should include
an external link to those folders and get data from flatfiles (identically
named) located on them. So for building the
link, name and folder of the local source file are identical, fixed and
sure.

The problem for building the external link is:
the server names and the drive names do differ. How can i get them ?

Perhaps it is possible to extraxt from ActiveWorkbook.Path, but i cannot
find how.

It´s not possible to use the methods of the FileScripting-Library
(FileSystemObject), since it is not granted
that this library is available.

Thanks for any (desperately needed) help in advance!
