Move Folders on the Server vs. Local Machine
Hi VB debuggers,
Is there a difference when moving folders on the server and local machine (server = S:/ local = C:/)?? PROGRAM MISSION: I have programmed code in Excel VBA to move folders when the user selects an item in a combo box. Once the user saves the change, the folder should move to it corresponding path. PROBLEM: The code fails when running the program on the server S:/ I get an error message box "Specified path not found" Where did I go wrong? Thanks in advance for you help and continue to enjoy life... Myrna Rodriguez THIS IS THE CODE: Private Sub cmdots_Click() 'Show OTS Form UserForm1.Show End Sub Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Call RegenerateLinks End Sub Sub RegenerateLinks() 'Declarations Dim Nextrow As Long Dim myRange As Range Dim x As String Dim cell As Range Dim fastNumValue As String Dim fileLocation As String Dim link As String Dim rowCount As Integer Dim h As Hyperlink Dim

Move Folders on the Server vs. Local Machine
I don't see where you declare your mainfolder variable. It is being used to
move the folder so its role is important, and perhaps declaring it explicitly as an object variable would help. Other than that it is hard to tell what the problem is without knowing which line of code is throwing the error. I would guess it is in here somewhe Set mainfolder = fso.GetFolder(oldFullAddress) mainfolder.Move newFullAddress but without knowing which line, or being able to test the values and properties of your variables at that point it is hard to say why it fails.
