Excellent, that's done the trick

No, it is a workbook events "Workbook_BeforeClose", so it needs to go on the
ThisWorkBook module.
Sorry, delete the "Cancel=True", thought we were in the _BeforeSave event

Thank you. I added the line but am still getting the message box coming
up.

This is probably a really dumb question but should I be inserting the
actual
name of the workbook somewhere ?

Have I put the code in the right place ? (It's in Module1 of the workbook)

Regards,

You need to add a line:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.Save
Cancel=True
End Sub

Thanks for the quick reply.

I saved this code into a module in a workbook but was still prompted
with
the "Do you want to save changes..." dialogue when I closed the
workbook.
I have not worked with code much so I have probably done something
very
basically wrong.

Regards,

Ilya

In Excel 2000 is it possible to imbed some code in a worksheet
that
will
automatically save the file when it is closed (rather than go
through
the
"are you sure...." routine). The standard autosave add-in is
already
being
used but the user wants to be able to close the sheet and not be
prompted -
just have the file saved as default.
