Our techies suggest this as a solution for common access to Sharepoint, which is atypical in that it requires a different path from each user:
Have your IT either map (with net use) or substitute (with subst) a common path to all users.
A common way to accomplish this is:
a.Whereby “T:” will be an empty drive that will be created to use as a common path, “\\server\my media” is the path that might be different for each person.
b.Open up an elevated command prompt and type:
net use T: "\\server\my media" /persistent:yes
c.Use the new “T:\” path to use as the new setting in the program where you would’ve previously used “\\server\my media”.
