Hi

I have this macro and when I try to open and automatically not come up as read only it keeps telling me that its locked for editing and do I want to open as read only or save and edit a copy. The thing is that the person it says that has it open has not got it open ?

Looking at it to I think I got it as a save as too rather than a open.

Any Ideas?

VBA Code:
' Macro9 Macro

'
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
        "https://rivagroup.sharepoint.com/teams/LOOMISGROUPVISITSISSUES/Shared%20Documents/General/Loomis%20Missed%20collections.xlsm" _
        , FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub

maybe sharepoint is the culprit, checking files in and out
