I have created a file that several users will be accessing with varying
computer skill level. I want to be sure that the file saves automatically when they close the file out rather than having to answer "yes" to the "Do you want to save this file?" question. Can this be done? |

Yes, that can be done with VBA programming. The following macro will save the file whenever a close command is issued by the user, regardless of whether the file has already been saved. This is a Workbook event macro and must be placed in the workbook module. Post back and provide your Excel version if you need more help with this..
