Hi Dave,

Thank you for responding.

I stumbled onto the cause of the problem.

Note the extra "\" following "Project" in the path name below

\\Serverone\files\Projects\\Telular Corporation\1222-SX6P REWORK

Excel does not like that extra "\" when trying to share the workbook. I
removed the "\" and all is well.

Thanks again.

Don

Your code worked fine for me in my tests:

Option Explicit
Sub testme()

Dim myProjectFolder As String
Dim myProject As String

myProject = "book99.xls"
myProjectFolder = "C:\my documents\excel\"

With ActiveWorkbook
.KeepChangeHistory = True
.ChangeHistoryDuration = 1

.SaveAs Filename:= _
myProjectFolder & myProject, AccessMode:=xlShared
End With
End Sub

Are you sure your variables point at the correct names/locations?

Is the correct workbook active?

What happens when you run your code--error messages??????

I have shared workbooks. My code can unshare the workbook to unprotect
sheets and add named ranges. But I cannot convert the workbook back to
shared mode.

Can you help?

Here is the code I have written to put the workbook back into shared mode,
but it doesn't work. What am I doiung wrong?

With ActiveWorkbook
.KeepChangeHistory = True
.ChangeHistoryDuration = 1
End With
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
myProjectFolder & myProject , AccessMode:=xlShared
ActiveWindow.Close

Thank you for your assistance.
