Capture close excel event in .xla
Hi - I hope someone can help.
I'm trying to capture the event where someone closes Excel (using the red "X"). My code is in an .xla and no other workbooks are open except the hidden .xla. My code is in "This Workbook" of the hidden .xla I've tried: Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) Workbook_WindowDeactivate(ByVal Wn As Window) Workbook_Deactivate() Workbook_SheetDeactivate(ByVal Sh As Object) None are captured - Excel just shuts down without triggering. The funny thing is, Workbook_Open() does trigger when the xla is opened. I'm using Excel 2000 if it makes any difference. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks & regards, Jon. |

Capture close excel event in .xla
I would have thought that workbook close would have been triggered, so I
just tried it. And it did, the close event was triggered as expected. -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Tournifreak" wrote in message ...

Capture close excel event in .xla
Just noticed your comment re Excel 2000, so I tried it there, and it still
worked. -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Tournifreak" wrote in message ... Hi - I hope someone can help.

Hi Bob, I just found this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q248172/ Seems like this is a bug with the original release of Excel 2000. I'm not sure if I have the service pack installed, so I'll install it anyway and report back. Thanks for your help, Jon. |

With SR-1 installed, Workbook_BeforeClose now triggers from within the .xla Thanks! Jon. |
