Hi all,
I have a workbook that is to not be overwritten. It is basically a
template to use for quoting. How do i avoid having the workbook
overwritten. Do i save as a template??
Yes - that's what templates are for. Users do File - New... (and not
just Ctrl+N) and a dialog pops up asking them what they want. They
select a template, and a copy of the template is loaded. (Maybe not
exactly how it happens, but that's the essence.)
I would like possibly a prompt
message before the user closes the book to ensure it isnt overwritten
IE: "Have you saved as a different name?"
How is this done??
In the VBA editor, under "ThisWorkbook":
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
tmp = MsgBox("Have you saved as a different name?", vbYesNo)
If Not (vbYes = tmp) Then Cancel = True
End Sub

No, you do not see. Pray you never will.
