Returns the number of times the workbook has been saved while open as a shared list. If the workbook is open in exclusive mode, this property returns 0 (zero). Read-only Long.
Syntax

expression A variable that represents a Workbook object.
Remarks

If ActiveWorkbook.RevisionNumber = 0 Then
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs _
filename:=ActiveWorkbook.FullName, _
accessMode:=xlShared, _
conflictResolution:= _
xlOtherSessionChanges
End If
