Hi,
I have a macro which is used by different users, has been working for years with no issues but now, due to an IT change, different users have been given different network addresses which I can't get to be changed so all have the same path.

In order for the code to run for all users,

One user will need the code written as N:\Capital Leasing\Operations\etc
Another user will need the code as N:\Operations\etc

Is there any code that I can insert that would say if
N:\Capital Leasing\Operations\etc
could not be found, then use
N:\Operations\etc ?

Thanks
Steve
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
So you are just saying the mapping of 'N' is different for different users? Maybe this:

Code:
pth = "N:\Capital Leasing\Operations"
fld = Dir(pth, vbDirectory)
If Len(fld) = 0 Then pth = "N:\Operations"

Thanks for your help, worked great
