MsgBox
Hi
Is it possible to have a Msgbox pop up with two options "Close and Save Workbook" and "Keep working on Workbook" Obviously when someclicks on "Close and Save Workbook" it will close and save it. |

MsgBox
No. You need to create a Userform for that. However, why not change your
tact and promt the user with the following message: "Do you want to Close and Save the Workbook?" Then use either the Yes/No or OK/Cancel buttons on the message box (see below for an example) Sub MessageBoxExampleForCloseAndSave() Dim lAnswer As Long 'Assume the answer will be Cancel lAnswer = vbCancel 'Prompt the user 'Note: I want to show both the exclamation icon AND the OK/Cancel buttons in the message box. ' I used a plus (vbExclamation + vbOKCancel) to add both. lAnswer = MsgBox("Do you want to Close and Save the Workbook?", vbExclamation + vbOKCancel, "Close and Save") 'Close and save the workbook if the user click OK If lAnswer = vbOK Then ActiveWorkbook.Close True End Sub -- _______________________ Robert Rosenberg R-COR Consulting Services Microsoft MVP - Excel "Ed" wrote in message ...

A User-Form will do that but not a MsgBox. But you can display a MsgBox
with Yes and No buttons. Just formulate your question to achieve the same thing with a Yes or No response. HTH Otto "Ed" wrote in message ...

The following response to a similar question was posted in the group a while back. I think it will do what you want though there's a fair amount of code to achieve it ... just copy and paste to a standard module. There's test code at the end. Also note that you'd have to reduce the length of your message as this code has short option buttons. All in all, a User Form is probably the best option here.
