Alternatively, you could declare it as a constant.
I tried the constant route, adding
Code:
Public Const projectPath As String = "myURL"
but I receive an error that says "Constants, fixed-length strings, arrays, user-defined types, and Declare statements not allowed as Public members of object modules."

For what it's worth, I also tried the two methods for Document variable, but they too ddi not seem to set/persist.
