Ron,

I still don't know where to put the code to trigger it to
run when the user does "file-new-selects the template".

Thanks,

Cindy

If you use it in a template you can use this as first
line in the event

If Len(ThisWorkbook.Path) = 0 Then Exit Sub

If the template is not saved the path length = 0

Where would I put this code?

Since it's a "template", I can't get the "on open" code
to
run because the user is not actually opening it, but
calling on the template to create a new file.

And where would I put the EnableEvents = False when I
only
want to disable the events to save my changes?

Sorry this is getting too complicated. I appreciate all
your help.

You can use this to disable all the events

Application.EnableEvents = False

restore it with

Application.EnableEvents = true

Hi Ron

I'm a little confused. My code is in the BeforeSave
event. What my problem is I can't save my design
changes
because the "BeforeSave" codes runs and want's data
filled-
in and I need to start with a "blank" form - no data.

Hi Cindy

Right click on the excel icon next to file on the
menubar
choose view code

The ThisWorkbook is now active
paste the code there

Every time you press the save(or ctrl-s) button the
Workbook_BeforeSave is
run and check the cells for you.
If not all the cells have a value you can't save


Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As
Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim myrange As Range
Set myrange = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range
("A1:A6")
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA
(myrange) <
_
myrange.Cells.Count Then
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

Thanks Ron

It works. Let me ask you another question - is
there a
way to have the BeforeSave and BeforeClose code
NOT
run?
What my code does it check that all required data
is
filled-in. Now, in the design phase, I need to
save
design changes and code but the BeforeSave and
BeforeClose
code runs and won't allow me to save without
filling
in
required data. Any ideas?

Thanks

Cindy

Hi Cindy

You can use

Cancel = true

Hi

I have code that runs on the workbook
BeforeSave
event.
How do I "cancel" the actual save process here?
Depending
on what the code returns, I want the save
process
cancelled and the workbook left on the screen.

Thanks

Cindy
