Thanks for any help. I am running a macro that saves all workbooks and then
does application.quit. Excel opens and closes the VisualBasic window. Since
others will be using this macro, I wish to elimanate this opening/closing.
Thanks for the hlep.

You should always post YOUR macro for comments. Try this

Sub CLOSE_ALL()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each w In Application.Workbooks
If w.Name < ThisWorkbook.Name Then
w.Save
w.Close
End If
Next w
ThisWorkbook.Save
Application.Quit
End Sub

Don, thanks for the help. Your macro worked for a couple of days but now the
Application.DisplayAlerts will not reset to False.
What have I done to cause this?

Thanks again for your help.

I really can't think of anything but perhaps a before_close event in one of
your workbooks. Perhaps if you modify to move the line or close excel and
re-open. Last re-boot of computer?

Sub CLOSE_ALL()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each w In Application.Workbooks
If w.Name < ThisWorkbook.Name Then

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

w.Save
w.Close
End If
Next w
ThisWorkbook.Save
Application.Quit
End Sub
