I have a user who uses SharePoint for their PC system. Both she and I use Excel 365. I don't know all the details but she says that "everything" is on SharePoint as a backup in case something goes wrong with her computer or if it gets stolen.

I beat the snot out of my workbook making sure it knows where to find files on MY computer. The folder is either Thisworkbook.path or an alternate folder that user may specify. IT WORKS on my PC. But for some reason user gets error if she tries to access or save files on her computer. Perplexing is the fact that another user at an affiliate company has the same SharePoint setup but the workbook works there.

Is there something I need to know about accessing and saving files on a computer with SharePoint?
