Turning off prompt to save file with no changes
How do you turn off the prompt that asks whether you want to save changes,
when no changes have been made? Some files automatically prompt you for this even when you open and then immediately close the file, while others don't. Thanks, Chris |

Turning off prompt to save file with no changes
Those particular sheets have volatile functions in them, like Offset,
Indirect, Now, among many others. These functions calculate even though their own values don't change. So ... in reality, the sheet *is* changed. -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "opieandy" wrote in message ...

RD,
No, this occurs when I open and close a new blank worksheet. Any other ideas?

Then you must have a macro or an add-in

No, I haven't installed anything from a third party. Still not sure why that
would affect some files but not others, particularly a blank worksheet.

Turning off prompt to save file with no changes
A worksheet is not a file.
A workbook is a file and can contain multiple worksheets. Exactly what are you opening and from where when you say "blank worksheet"?
