When working on a local server, DirPath = ActiveWorkbook.Path will render a Windows path C:\MyFile'sDirectoryPath\Myfile.pdf
When looking at a cloud based file that has been synced locally, the windows path in the screen will be C:\Users\MyUserName\MyFile'sDirectoryPath\Myfile.pdf
When executing ActiveWorkbook.Path for the same cloud based file, the URL for its location on the cloud is returned. https:/site/MyFile'sDirectoryPath/Myfile.pdf

Is there a command that will render the local path to the file? You can access the file via the URL, however, that requires you to authenticate via a web browser. I'd rather execute using the local as that has already been authenticated. Please forgive any errors my phrasing of the issue. I'm just dangerous enough to spell Macro.
