Where will the file with the macro be?

If it's inside the username folder (at least) you will be able to get that
by looking at the Workbook.Fullname property and strip out the bits you
need.

You could also read and then parse the DefaultFilePath property of the
application. Some of these may be dangerous if the user moves the file or
changes the default file path

Just a couple of suggestions

I have a macro that requires opening a file in My Documents. This may be a
networking question that may require onsite help but what I was wondering
is
if there is a way in the code to specify to open a file in My Documents
from
"the computer you're on" for example (not sure how to word that). I'm
trying
to avoid having to create a macro for each computer because I will have
the
same file stored in My Documents on each computer. Does that make sense?

For example, the code right now reads (for the computer I am currently
on -
"Blinds etc" is how the computer is named I believe & the other folders
will
be exactly the same on the other computers ):

Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"C:\Documents and Settings\BLINDS ETC\My Documents\Pricing\Company
Price Lists\Temporary.xls"
