Hi Adam,

If the value of M2 can be 0 or nothing (no entry), then try:

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)

Cancel = Me.Sheets("Detailed_Cost_Sheet").Range("M2").Value = 0

End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, _
Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = Me.Sheets("Detailed_Cost_Sheet").Range("M2").Value = 0
End Sub

If M2 must have an entry and equal 2, try instead:

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim rng As Range

Set rng = Me.Sheets("Detailed_Cost_Sheet").Range("M2")
If Not IsEmpty(rng) Then
Cancel = rng.Value = 0
End If

End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, _
Cancel As Boolean)
Dim rng As Range

Set rng = Me.Sheets("Detailed_Cost_Sheet").Range("M2")
If Not IsEmpty(rng) Then
Cancel = rng.Value = 0
End If

End Sub
