Couple of questions:

When you say create a global variable what do i need to do and where do i
define that?
Also, the code:
Dim MySave as Boolean

Sub MySaveMacro()
MySave = True
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs BlahBlahBlah
End Sub
Does that go in the click event for the command button? And the other code
goes in "This Worbook" under the before Save Event?

Sorry for the dumb questions, I am just trying to sort all this out.

Oops you also need to set the Boolean back to false after you save.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As
Boolean)
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook


If Not MySave Then Cancel = True
MySave = False
End Sub

All,

I have been searching through the archives, but can't locate an answer for
this.

I have a command button that when clicked saves the file as the name in cell
B1.
I also want to disable the Save, Save As and save button on the toolbar. To
accomplish that I located the code below. However when I insert that code,
my command button is also disabled. How can I disable the Save, Save As and
save button on the toolbar but still allow my Save button (command button) to
work?

Please help. Thanks

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
Cancel = True
