I've got a workbook that should only be closed if the value of a certain cell
is not equal to 2. I've been trying to use the BeforeClose event and an OnTime method to do it. My code in the ThisWorkbook module is: Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel as Boolean) If (Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("F2").Value = 2) Then Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:05"), "TryToClose", _ Schedule:=True Cancel = True End If End Sub If cell F2 has a value of 2, the macro cancels the save, waits five seconds, and calls TryToClose. Sub TryToClose() ThisWorkbook.Close End Sub TryToClose then attempts to close the workbook (which activates the Workbook_BeforeClose event again). This should continue with one macro calling the other (and vice versa) until the value of F2 is no longer 2. However, the loop only works once. It appears that when TryToClose calls the BeforeClose event, the OnTime method does not work properly. I'm not sure why. Any help would be very much appreciated. -- Bejaz |
