Email using universal naming convention
 
Not sure what emailing has to do with drive letters. Once attached, a copy
of the file is in the email and is not associated with a drive.

Perhaps you could explain what you mean.

When emailing Excel spreadsheets, sometimes the drive
letter changes unexpectedly, i.e. from F to G. Would code
using a universal naming convention (UNC) work? If so,
what would be an example of how to code it?

Is there something else that might be causing this problem?

Thanks for your reply.

I'm not sure either! That's a complaint some people are
having about emailing a document when they click on the
send to. Thought I'd throw it out to anyone who might
have heard of this.

I actually think it has to do with where their email
attachments are stored.

I'll check into it further to see . . .

If I open/edit an attachment it is opened in a temp directory. Perhaps that
is what they are talking about. Double click on an attachment, the do
file=save as and see what directory you are in.
