The FP VBA object mode is unique to FP
- See the FP VBA help for the correct method to include the credentials
(als example code for each method)
You need to open the local web first
expression.Open(szWebUrl, UserName, Password, WebOpenFlags)
Then publish it to remote
expression.Publish(DestinationUrl, PublishFlags, UserName, Password)
