How do I auto launch an excel file upon log in?
I want our company calendar (created in excel) to open automatically when
employees log in to the server every morning. The file resides on our server and is password protected so only I can make changes to it. I believe the employees keep a shortcut on their desktops. I know how to set it up so it opens upon start-up of Excel, but I want it to open upon log in to the server only. We may have different versions of Excel on different computers, but I am using Office XP Excel version 10.0.4 etc. if that makes a difference. |

Perhaps you this might work:
Since you want the running of the file to be initiated upon login, and not to the running of Excel..... Put a shortcut to the Excel Calendar in each employee's Windows StartUp folder. Windows runs/opens every file in the Windows StartUp folder upon login. Is that something you can work with? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP-Pro "Starion" wrote: I want our company calendar (created in excel) to open automatically when employees log in to the server every morning.
