You could use a macro:

Option Explicit
Sub SaveThemAll()
Dim wkbk As Workbook
Dim okCtr As Long

okCtr = 0
For Each wkbk In Application.Workbooks
If wkbk.Path = "" Then
'hasn't been saved, so skip it
Else
If wkbk.Saved = True Then
'skip it, why bother
Else
On Error Resume Next
wkbk.Save
If Err.Number < 0 Then
MsgBox "Error saving: " & wkbk.FullName _
& vbLf & Err.Number & vbLf & Err.Description
Err.Clear
Else
Beep 'some indicator
Application.StatusBar = "Saved: " & wkbk.Name & " at " & Now
okCtr = okCtr + 1
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End If
End If
Next wkbk

Application.StatusBar = False

MsgBox okCtr & " of " & Application.Workbooks.Count & " saved."

End Sub

Is there a way to save all open Excel files with one command? I am working
on annual budget and have ~70 open files and I toggle back and forth so often
I forget what I saved. Is there one command that will save them all at the
same time? I can click on the red close-excel "X" at the top and click yes
to all, but I do not want to close them. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
