Default Disable X button on excel

You are closing file so macro execution stops...

Public Ok2Close As Boolean
Sub CloseMacro()
Ok2Close = True
ChDir "D:\"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="D:\DWS.xls", FileFormat:= _
xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="",
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False _
, CreateBackup:=True
ThisWorkbook.Close
Application.Quit
Ok2Close = False

End Sub

You can enter it before

Ok2Close = False

You can use Workbook_BeforeClose event to force user tocloseworkbook
by
pressing a button.


Copy following code to ThisWorkBook code section


Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = Not Ok2Close
End Sub


Copy following code to a module


Public Ok2Close As Boolean
Sub CloseMacro()
Ok2Close = True
ThisWorkbook.Close
Ok2Close = False
End Sub
