Hey,
I have an autoexec macro in my program. When the frontend of the program opens up, I want the macro to run a module to check the local drive (C:) for the same program. If the program is in the C: drive, I want the open program to overwrite the original program. If not, I want it to save a new copy in the C: drive. I also would like this to happen without the user being asked where to save or what to call it.
What I am trying to do is put the frontend on sharepoint so it is accessible through the network. My issue is when the program is opened from the site, It asks the user if they want the program to be read-only or editable and I don't want this. The program only works when editable is selected, so my plan is to set users to only be able to open it as read only, then have the program save itself so it can be editable and the user could use it to its full potential.
Anyone know how I could go about this?
Also is this possible or is there a better way around it?
Let me know if any clarification is needed.
Thanks in advance.
