    Prompt a message if "Read Only"

    Hi, lets say if i have a path that link to a specific excel in a Shared Folder.

    How do i make it that if the Excel is "read only" (meaning, another user is using it), it prompt a message saying "File is being use, please try again later" then exit sub.

    I believe there's a check for it as part of the Workbook object
