Default Pass Excel User License to Variable

One possibility might be
Thisworkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Company"). Value

but this is a workbook level property and I am not sure if it is affected if
the workbook is opened in a different location than where it was created --
but I doubt it, so this may not be of much use.

You would then have to go to the registry as far as I know:

there has been plenty of code posted in the newgroup in the past on reading
registry entries, so you should be able to find some in Google Groups for
this newsgroup.
