I've had experts tell me, Of course it works. But it doesn't always. For a
while I'd even customized the VBE so the save button didn't appear, and I
was forced to save through code.

Actually, I find that sometimes the button doesn't save anything. The
file
time isn't updated and the caption switches for too short a time for
anything to have happened. So I often have a little procedure in the
workbook:

Sub SaveMe()
ThisWorkbook.Save
End Sub

Agreeably it just saves the excel file. That being said since you
should
save
on a regular basis it is very convenient that you do not have to flip
back
to
Excel to do the save.

The other nice thing about it is that I have in the past created
templates
which effectively locked the user out from being able to save the
workbook
(including me). The easiest way to save my changes in such a book is to
use
the save button in the VBE...

Just curious here. I can't figure out what, if anything, the Save icon
in the VBE does. My experience is that to save a macro, I have to save
the worksheet it's with. Does anyone know what the "other" Save button
does?
