After looking closer (i had a misperception about what you were doing),
perhaps all you need to do is add

set ie = nothing

at the end.

I have a module that opens an itrnaet page and then is suppose to close
excel down without saving changes. The following code closes the workbook
but does not close the excel application, can anyone advise how I can get
excel to terminate ?

If uid < 0 Then
Set ie = CreateObject("Internetexplorer.Application")
ie.Visible = True
ie.navigate "inside.mysite.com\qbrowse\lizard\expenses.asp?uid =" &
uid

End If
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.Quit

Thanks in anticipation

John
