Hi

I was given a macro that should open a sharepoint file. I believe that it shouldnt be in the workbook that I open but somewhere else.

Where do I put it? Tried putting in new workbook and running and says the file dont exist but it is in sharepoint.

VBA Code:
Sub OpenAndCloseWBFromSharePointFolder()

'If nobody has the file checked out
If Workbooks.CanCheckOut("https://arrivagroup.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/O365GRP-StationAccounts/Shared%20Documents/General/test.xlsm?d=wdcc3d7b614284396a2cb4564704dff53&cs") = True Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

'Open the file on the SharePoint server
Workbooks.Open Filename:="https://arrivagroup.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/O365GRP-StationAccounts/Shared%20Documents/General/test.xlsm?d=wdcc3d7b614284396a2cb4564704dff53&csF", UpdateLinks:=xlUpdateLinksNever

'Close the workbook
Workbooks("test.xlsm").Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Else
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

'Open the File to check if you already have it checked out
Workbooks.Open Filename:="https://arrivagroup.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/O365GRP-StationAccounts/Shared%20Documents/General/test.xlsm?d=wdcc3d7b614284396a2cb4564704dff53&cs", UpdateLinks:=xlUpdateLinksNever

'See if doc can be checked in
If Application.Workbooks("test.xlsm").CanCheckIn Then

'Check In, Save and Close
Application.Workbooks("ExcelList.xlsb").CheckIn SaveChanges:=True, Comments:="Checked-In before Delete"

'Open the file again
Workbooks.Open Filename:="https://arrivagroup.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/O365GRP-StationAccounts/Shared%20Documents/General/test.xlsm?d=wdcc3d7b614284396a2cb4564704dff53&cs"

'Close the workbook
Workbooks("test.xlsm").Close
End If
End If

End Sub

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
My SP experience is limited, but I'm fairly certain you cannot access a SP file using its web address. You need the server name and path to the file. If you can navigate to the SP server with Windows File Explorer you should be able to look at its properties and get the server name.
