Hi,
I wish to put a timeout for my excel spreadsheet & it needs to work like this.

If there is any INACTIVITY on the sheet, (I'm also using 1 user-form to
accept feeds) there needs to be a message stating 'this bokk wil terminate in
'x' seconds owing to inactivity' & should close after that period

Important...The workbook on closing SHOULD NOT SAVE.
This excercise to close only this spreadsheet & not excel 'aplication'
(other spreadsheets shouldnt get affected)

Please explain where excatly i need to place the codes etc as I'm quite new
with programming.

Thnx in advance.
