Hi, I had a question about linking to a shared excel file that is saved to one drive. If I use windows explorer it links to c:\\ user\ one drive \ ect. I can use the linked table but no one else has access to the drive. Conversely if I use the one drive web site and get the file path then I get an https:\\ link that access wants an xml attachment instead of excel. What is the best way to link to a document saved on one drive?
Thanks Brian

You can share your "C:\Users\YourName\OneDrive" folder among your users using the typical Windows file sharing method (right-click on the folder in Windows Explorer and click "Give access to"). The website link cannot be used this way because it points to the file in the cloud, which cannot be shared this way.
