use the before close workbook event

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If SaveAsUI = True Then Cancel = True
End Sub

this immediatly cancels save as as soon as it is selected provide macros are
enabled

schedule to their own directory and then not get the updates.
