Default put the program on server

One thought is to create an add-in that contains your macros. Add-ins can be
used by many at the same time. Put the add-in on the server and have your
clients put the add-in into their add-in library [ToolsAddins].
Then you only have to update the one Addin file on the server and all your
clients have it next time they load Excel.

Hope this helps.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I want to know how to put the VBA on server for easy maintain.
since the file will be used by lots of user.
If the file is needed to maintain, I need to copy the VBA in every excel
file now.

Can I set up the file to get the VBA from server when I run the Macro?

I would suggest getting John Walkenbach's book 'Microsoft Office Excel 2003
Power Programming with VBA at ...
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/IS...alkassociateA/
Chapter 21 "Creating and Using Add-Ins' is spectacular. Everything you ever
wanted to know about Add-Ins and was afraid to ask! :O
The rest of the book is just as incredible and worth every penny!
