Hi,

I am using ActiveWorkbook.Close to close my spreadsheets but I woul
also like to terminate Excel too.

I have tried Application.Quit but this did nothing and Excel was stil
open.

Does anyone know of a way to close Excel from a macro and can the
provide and example?

Thank

Try not closing the workbooks before using it.

this works for me to save all and close. Modify to suit.
Sub CLOSE_ALL()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each w In Workbooks
w.Save
Next
Application.Quit
End Sub
