Default Turn Off save prompt, reminder when closing modified WORD...

If you alter your security setting then the issue would not happen. Also you
could consider digitally signing the workbook and then allowing that
signature as a trusted source, again getting you around the issue of warnings.

It's not ideal I grant you, however there are ways to get around these
things if you are prepared to.

the BeforeClose event if it was too much of an issue ...

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

End Sub

HTH.


But if the workbook does not currently contain macros then you'd have
warnings about macros to click through before it opens or remember to
hold the shift key down to disable the macros.

Looks to me like a no win situation. Excel's just doing what comes
naturally.
