Hi Judith,

It's the damn NG wrap. The Boolean ) on a line all of
its own should be part
of the first line.

Thank you all for your help. And ever confusing
exchange
lol :)

I have copied and pasted the BeforeSave VB and it is
showing red in the code window?

I'll calling on your expertise again!

Hey Jim,

I can be even pickier :-). Ans should be declared as
Long not Integer.

Sorry, just a laugh, couldn't resist.

Regards

Bob

To be reallllly pick about Bob's code ans should be
declared as an
integer.
Without specifying as Bob has done you end up with a
variant which
requires
extra overhead. In this application it won't really
make any difference
but
it is alway good programming to declare your
variable
explicitly. This is
a
really picky point but I get people asking me why
when
they type the dot
after a key word "why they don't get a drop down
list". Very often this is
the reason....

dim ans as integer

Hi Judith,

Here is some code

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As
Boolean)
Dim ans
ans = MsgBox("Are you sure you want tos save
this file", vbYesNo)
If ans = vbNo Then
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

'This is workbook event code.
'To input this code, right click on the Excel icon
on the worksheet
'(or next to the File menu if you maximise your
workbooks),
'select View Code from the menu, and paste the
code

Hello there,

I have spreadsheets that are updated by various
people. I
would like a macro that puts up a message box
when
they
save or close to ask if they are sure. If they
click Yes
then continue. If No then cancels the action.

I'm a beginner in VB but willing to try it!

Judith
