Default File won't close when "beforeclose" event is used.

I have an Excel file that opens up other files to
retreive info. Once the info is copied the files were to
be closed using the .close method. I could not figure out
why they wouldn't close. When I stepped through the VBA
code the files would close, but not when the code was
running by itself. I knew the files that I wanted to
close contained code in the beforeclose event. Once I
removed this code, the files closed as directed.
Is there a way around this? I've changed the files so
they no longer require code in the beforeclose event, but
I would like to know if this is a bug or if I have to add
something to allow code to be added to the beforeclose
event.
