It will prompt you to save if the workbook contains volatile functions, such
as NOW() or TODAY().

You don't need to resave, as you can close the book answering "No" to the
question as to whether you want to save.

Every time I open a workbook -make no changes - just look - I am asked if
I
want to save the changes. When I am flipping through patient workbooks to
be
sure, for instance, a date change was made (checking 25 to 50 at a time) -
just looking - I can not close it untill it is resaved. Please tell me
there
is a way to stop this!!
