My VBA code needs to interact with files from SharePoint, and I'm having some difficulty...the connection seems to periodically disconnect, making it impossible to use the dir function.

As a workaround, I was going to use the SharePoint as a mapped drive, but using the File Dialog returns the SharePoint URL instead of the mapped drive path. Is there a way to get it to return the mapped drive path?

Thank you,
Parsnips

Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
can you not just replace

X:\something with

\\location\location\something

Unfortunately, while it works sometimes, that often results in an error 52- even when I am logged into SharePoint.
