hi,

i am writing a worksheet in excel. i need to disable the close button on
both the window and the menu bar if a certain total has not been met (i.e. if
they haven't answered the minimun number of questions they shouldn't be able
to close the file)

how do i do this? if you think this can be done more efficiently in any
other office application let me know as well.

thanks,
michelle k
