Hello all
i have Developed a new app using vba to my Laboratory and there are 55 users using my vba program.
i have stored my vba program to a network folder and i gave each user a copy of my program , all copy stored in user's c: drive
how can i make changes to my program and apply the changes to all the copy i made to users ?
please need your help
Why don't you just ask all your users to copy the file from the network folder to their c: drive?
I'd suggest you read Ken's article here: https://www.excelguru.ca/content.php?152-Deploying-Add-ins-in-a-Network-Environment

what i need is to build a connection from the workbook in the network folder to all the users's workbook , so if i changed userform1 design in the workbook that stored in network folder , automatically the users workbooks will changes .... can this happen ?

Thanks but i am trying to avoid the add-in script
or they can map this VBA File into their C: whatever. Then, no matter when you do the update, can be make avail to all these users .
Of course you grant them the related access rights of this Folder/vb File
You don't need a script. All the users run the networked copy of the add-in so, when changes are made to that, they automatically get them the next time they start Excel. It's a tried and tested method.

Hi, Velouria
I want to share a macro excel like this to be able to work from two or more computers. I tried OneDrive but it doesn't allow to run Macros and VBA (is possible to do this in excel online?).
If you can help me to make this happen this would be helpful, to show me a tutorial how to do this.
Thanks in advance
Best, Astrit
Hi Astrit,
Just do as already suggested here
1. Allow users to load the same file from a shared network drive
2. Load an add-in from shared network drive
You don't describe your environment though so those solutions may not work.
Whilst you can store a workbook with VBA on OneDrive, the VBA won't execute in Excel Online. So the user would have to download the file from OneDrive to their PC and run the VBA that way.
