Sometimes, but not always, Excel asks if I want to save the current file,
even though I've made no changes. Does anyone know why this occurs, and if
there is a setting I can change to avoid the prompt unless actual changes are
made?

Thank you.

There are a number of functions that will update themselves when
the workbook is opened, and this causes Excel to act as though
the workbook has been changed. These functions include NOW() ,
TODAY(), ROW(), etc. See Volatile Functions in help for more
info.
