Default Cancel "Save Workbook" popup

It looks like the code you sent originally was just missing the Me.Saved =
True if the user clicked No and Me.Save if the user clicked Yes. The
Me.Saved statement tricks Excel into not prompting to save. Here is the
code that I wrote based on your input:

'Check if the workbook needs to be saved
If ActiveWorkbook.Saved = False Then

'If so, open a dialog box asking to save, not save, or cancel
ans = MsgBox("Do you want to save the changes you made to '" & Me.Name &
"'?", vbYesNoCancel, Me.Parent)

Select Case ans
Case vbCancel: Cancel = True
Case vbYes: Me.Save
Case vbNo: Me.Saved = True
End Select

End If

This works perfectly, thanks for getting me on the right track!

Bob, unfortunately, the code still does not do what I'm looking for. I

can
cancel the Workbook_BeforeClose routine, but the Save dialog box still

opens
after that routing is done. I found this

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/microsoft...reclose. aspx
but that doesn't do what I'm looking for either, any other ideas?

Thanks again,
RC

A different approach.

Check if the workbook is 'dirty'

If Not Activeworkbook.Saved

and is so throw up your own message

ans = MsgBox ("Save the workbook", vbYesNoCancel)

and test if they cancel

If ans - vbCancel Then

don't remove your commandbar, and Cancel the close

Cancel = True

I have some code that runs during the Workbook_BeforeClose procedure.

I
have a Main Menu menu bar that I want to remove when the user closes

the
workbook.

The code works with out problem, but, if the user is prompted to save

the
workbook before closing AND Cancel is clicked, the menu is removed but
the
workbook is still open, the user then does not have access to the menu
options.

I am trying to figure out a way to invoke code that will rebuild the

menu
bar if the user clicks Cancel at the save workbook dialog box.

Does anyone know how to capture the Cancel event of the save workbook
procedure?

TIA
