Default Excel - Read-Only

It goes in a standard module:

1. from Excel touch ALT-F11 to open the VBE window
2. ALT-I
ALT-M to open a fresh module
3. Just paste the stuff in and close the VBE window

Thank you..Can you tell me "where" you put this code. Do you go into "TOOLS"
"MACRO" "VISUAL BASIC EDITOR"....and just past the code....or....is there any
other consideration in putting this code in.......I have very little
experience in dealing with VB Code

I have an Excel file on an FTP Server.

Once a 2nd user opens this file.....I would expect this user to get a
"Read-only" message......but this is NOT happening.

I need the "read-only" message to pop-up IF the file is in use

Is there any type of code I can enter into my workbook to force this?

Thanks
