Hi All

Is it possible to get the result of the Yes, No, Cancel Dialog that apers
when i close an excel. It is asking if i would like to save the excel
workbook.

I need an event that apears if someone clicks No, or Cancel. Is there a way
to get an event for these two actions? or something else i should do to know
if somebody clicked no or cancel?

my problem is, that i need to execute code after the
workbookbeforeSave-Event. In the taskbar the Excel.exe process is not
closing...if someone knows how i could solve that problem i would be very
happy. then the first problem wouldn't be a problem anymore and i do not have
to kill the Excel.exe process by myself...

using c#, vs .net, vb.net is also understood

thanks for your help

m.ahrens,

You are asking a blind man what it look like...

In C#, do you have anything equivalent to "Typename".
If so, it could possibly tell you whether Excel is still open...
If TypeName(xlApp) = "Application" then Excel is still
open (cancel was clicked).

Also, you might be able to get the date last modified for the
applicable file and compare it to the value saved before
opening Excel to determine if Yes or No was clicked.

There are probably better ways to do both.

In Excel VBA, one can eliminate the offending message with...
"Application.DisplayAlerts = False"
or determine the "Saved" state of the workbook with...
If ActiveWorkbook.Saved = True then (Yes was clicked).
