Default HELP: version control issue

Hey Joel,

What do you mean by "use the workbook full filename?" where do I use that?
The issue here is that once I post the form on intranet, Users click the
link on intranet to launch the form and then they get options to "open, save,
cancle" and they click on save instead of opening it everytime.

So basically now they have a copy of the form on their local drives, how
would I use "FName = ThisWorkbook.FullName" to make them open the form
everytime from intranet?

Thanks in advance

You could use the workbook full filename to make sure it is run from
the network drive

FName = ThisWorkbook.FullName

Thisworkbook is the workbook where the macro is being executed from.
So if you add a test to the macro checking the fullName they won't be
able to run the macro from another location. Yo uprobably need to
protect this portion of the macro becaue somebody who knows VBA could
then modifiy the check.
