Is it something to do with having to "Check Out" the document?

<div>
Thanks rob<br />
I'm unsure as don't get an option to check out. <br />
<br />
There is a manual fix by going to file/options/general/start<wbr /> up options<br />
<br />
Untick :open email attachments and other uneditable files in reading mode '<br />
<br />
I need to do this is vba as there are many users<br />
<br />

Hi - Im hoping someone can help me as the internet so far has not come up with anything. We recently upgraded to sharepoint 2013 which I believe is causing the issue.<br />
<br />
The steps are:<br />
open a word document on sharepoint with bookmarks in it<br />
copy data from excel to the word document<br />
save as different name<br />
<br />
The issue is in the new version of sharepoint when I open it, it is in some sort of protected mode - can not enter data - one has to select edit document to enter data.<br />
<br />
I wish to do be able to edit document in VBA<br />
<br />
Here is my code.<br />
<br />
Set doc = wd.Documents.Open(&quot;<a href="http://******************.docx" rel="ugc">http://******************.docx</a>&quot;, ReadOnly:=True)<br />
<br />
Is there something to add to the end of the line to open document in read mode but so can be edited<br />
Ive tried removing readonly := true piece etc but nothing works so far<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
