If I go to open a workbook that is already open on the network by another user, and I then click notify, is it possible to somehow notify that user that I'm waiting for read/right access?
Thanks

Use one of these or a combination.
1. MsgBox()
2. Userform
3. Application.Statusbar

Thanks Kenneth, are you suggesting an Excel userform or msgbox?
-- how would I be able to initiate either of those from my computer,, to pop up on the other users computer?

You would have to have network rights to send messages to do that sort of thing. The exact method depends on the network. Of course you could send an email.
