Disable save/saveas dialog box upon closing
I saw another topic on this where the user wanted to automatically
save. I have macros running that disable saving and want the dialog box not to automatically pop-up as the save button on it doesn't work anyway. I was trying all kinds of code such as: Sub Auto_Close() WorkbookObject.Saved = True WorkbookObject.Close End Sub I also tried: Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean) Cancel = True End Sub Still, when I close the application, I get the box asking if I would like to save changes. How do I keep this box from automatically popping up? I searched other answers and saw that they recommended code that automatically saved it, but that is different. I thought I would be able to simply adjust the code, but I couldn't figure that out. Also, I am using ThisWorkbook as I imagine that is the right place for such code. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you. |

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Me.Saved = True End Sub Will close without saving or asking. NOTE: after inserting code you must save the workbook once.

Any ideas of what I can be doing wrong? Perhaps your WorkbookObject var was not holding a fully qualified ref to the wkb being closed. Otherwise, the code I posted worked for the file I tested it with. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |

Another approach to closing without saving (and thus not raising the
alert) is... WorkbookObject.Close SaveChanges:=False Of course, 'WorkbookObject' still requires a fully qualified ref be 'Set' to the workbook being closed. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |

I imagine that since I do not know what that means, I must not have done that correctly. |

I imagine that since I do not know what that means, I must not have done that correctly. Your code suggests that 'WorkbookObject' refs a specific open workbook, and so this object variable should have been initialized at some point elsewhere in your code using the 'Set' statement something like... Set WorkbookObject = Workbooks("Filename.xls") Otherwise, 'WorkbookObject' means nothing to VBA. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |
