Hi

I have a tiny file that list all files from a SharePoint directory (https: )

When I run the macro it stop on : objNet.MapNetworkDrive "A:", myDir

Error: "The operation being requested was not performed because the user has not been authenticated."

But if I open another file (and do nothing, only minimizing the window) the macro in the first file is working.
And even if I close the second file it still works. But if I close the file, open and run the macro again it wont work.

I guess there is something happening when the other file is loaded. Dll's , security settings , Windows registry .. ?

Please help or tip what to look for.

I have checked all the preferences and have the same priority order in both files.

Code:
    On Error Resume Next
    objNet.RemoveNetworkDrive "A:", True
    On Error GoTo 0
    myDir = Sheets("Dir").Cells(1, 2)
    objNet.MapNetworkDrive "A:", myDir    '<-- get stuck! :(
    Set objFolder = FSO.GetFolder("A:")
    r = 1
    For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
        tbl.DataBodyRange.Cells(r, 2) = objFile.Name
        tbl.DataBodyRange.Cells(r, 1) = objFile.DateLastModified
        r = r + 1
    Next

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.

The preferences and libraries are the same and have the same priority in both files.

Re: Get stuck on MapNetworkDrive

According to the SharePoint team at our company MapNetworkDrive is too instable to use. They will find a better way to do it on our environment.
