I'm running into issues where I checkout a doc programmatically and then
discard the check out with

myWB.Checkin (False)

and it still keeps a version in my sharepoint drafts, so when I open the doc
again, it's got a version in the drafts already. *

I have an excel workbook running macros on an in-house SharePoint site. Files
are CheckedOut, Edited and CheckedIn with a Macro if the user is allowed to
Edit data through their SharePoint permission settings. Other users are not
allowed to Edit data but they are allowed to View/Read-only the Workbook
data. *For user convenience, I would like the same Macro to auto start
whenever a user Opens the Workbook (this I can do). *However since different
users have different permissions under SharePoint (Edit data vs. View/Read
only) I would like to read the individual user’s SharePoint permission
setting within the macro code and then use this to determine flow within the
macro (Editors can run the entire macro and Modify/Save the data and Viewers
default to the current read-only Workbook). Can this be done – if so how. If
not can you suggest another way to do this. Only one user can CheckOut the
workbook for editing at a time but multiple users can Open the workbook for
viewing (at the same time). If a View/Read-only user tries to CheckOut a
Workbook it will generate an error but this will also happen if a user whose
permission setting allows them to Edit a Workbook tries to CheckOut a
Workbook that is already checked out by another user. At least that's my
understanding and I'm sticking to it unless you tell me otherwise.

I can successfully checkout a file from VBA but it puts it in my draft
sharepoint folder, I don't see an option (like your get when you do it
manually) to have it NOT use the draft folder but keep it on the
server. Is there a way to do that?
