Save button in VBE
Just curious here. I can't figure out what, if anything, the Save icon
in the VBE does. My experience is that to save a macro, I have to save the worksheet it's with. Does anyone know what the "other" Save button does? |

Save button in VBE
Agreeably it just saves the excel file. That being said since you should save
on a regular basis it is very convenient that you do not have to flip back to Excel to do the save. The other nice thing about it is that I have in the past created templates which effectively locked the user out from being able to save the workbook (including me). The easiest way to save my changes in such a book is to use the save button in the VBE... -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "davegb" wrote: Just curious here.

Save button in VBE
Actually, I find that sometimes the button doesn't save anything. The file
time isn't updated and the caption switches for too short a time for anything to have happened. So I often have a little procedure in the workbook: Sub SaveMe() ThisWorkbook.Save End Sub - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ "Jim Thomlinson" wrote in message ...

Save button in VBE
I've had experts tell me, Of course it works. But it doesn't always. For a
while I'd even customized the VBE so the save button didn't appear, and I was forced to save through code. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ "Jim Thomlinson" wrote in message ...
