Close An Unused Workbook Automatically After A Specific Time

Apr 19, 2007

I have got a spreadsheet which is being used as a database. I would like the spreadsheet to close automatically if the user has not "touched" it for a specific amount of time (say 1hr).

2 scenarios:

a/ The user is working in Excel but with another workbook.
b/ The user has the excel spreadsheet open but is working with another application, say Word

I experimented with Workbook_WindowDeactivate but I do not know how to stop the process if the Workbook is reactivated (Maybe a DO ...LOOP calling a function returning a True/False statement on the event Workbook_WindowActivate !!). My way of thinking is the following

Workbook is deactivated
Start a timer
If the workbook is not reactivated with 1hr, save and close (no user intervention wanted)
Else stop timer
Repeat process

Compile Error On Close Of Excel 2003 But Not On Close Of Workbook

Mar 22, 2012

I am using Excel 2003.

It’s been working perfectly up until around an hour ago. However, now when I close Excel, I get compile errors.

These compile errors seem to be because Excel is trying to access controls in the workbook after it has closed. Since the workbook is closed, VBA can no longer ‘see’ the controls, and therefore it thows up errors.

I’m also getting a similar error on a Worksheets("DataExplorer").unprotect line, which seems to be because the worksheet isn’t there after closing.

These errors only occur when I close the whole excel application using the big cross in the top right. If I just close the workbook (using the smaller cross just below the big cross in the top right of excel), it doesn’t throw up these errors.

Just to clarify: all of the code runs perfectly when Excel is open. The errors are being thrown up for lines of code which run without problem until Excel is closed.

Refresh All Queries On Workbook Open When Finished Print To PDF Then Close Workbook

Jan 23, 2014

I have data that daily needs to be refreshed and printed to pdf.

I figure the simplest way to do this would be to task schedule the workbook to open daily. Then on open it will refresh the data, print it after all data has been refreshed and close the workbook.

I set it up originally without the need to print so I have all the queries set to refresh when opening the file, however when I now try and put the code to print to pdf on the workbook open event it runs before the queries are finished running. (Query notes: queries were created through Microsoft query, and are accessing a MySQL database queries set to refresh when opening the file queries set to enable background refresh).

Close And Reopen Workbook From Macro Stored Inside Workbook

Mar 30, 2007

I have a Macro that is stored in a specific workbook,"Projection Modeler.xls" the last line performed in this macro is the close workbooks without saving chages(this needs to be done due to the way this macro was written, and it would take too long to rewrite). If I would then like to reopen this workbook, and then rerun this macro, can I do this from inside the current macro (in a new sub routine, for instance), or do I have to write a macro outside of the workbook and then open the workbook and call the routine?

Copy Range To New Workbook & Close Existing Workbook

Jun 30, 2008

I have a very brief question

dlgAnswer = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show
Selection.Copy
Windows("Derivative YK pricing Mod G.xls").Activate
Columns("B:B").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats, Operation:= _
xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Range("C5").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Windows("EXPORT1.xls").Activate
ActiveWindow.Close

As you can see, I open a workbook with the dlgAnswer, I was wondering how I could close that opened workbook

Currently I have

Windows("EXPORT1.xls").Activate
ActiveWindow.Close

however the workbook will not always be called export1.xls, I want it to close whichever one I opened earlier.

Automatically Close File And Save Changes With A New Name

Jun 13, 2009

I am trying to fix is that I have two computers networked together both with multiple users all with access to the report form that I am using which is in the shared file. If I have been working on it (I am still trying to do improvements when I have time), and I have to leave for a fire or forget to close the report, no one can access it other than with read-only.

My idea was to run some type of code that either when the screen saver comes on or after so much time with no activity, it would close and save the file with a new file name(just in case I don't want the changes that I have made in the code or something).

Automatically Close UserForm After Time Period

Feb 15, 2010

I have the following code in a simple userform containing only a label:


Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
DoEvents
Sleep 4000
Unload Me
End Sub

When I invoke this as a single macro in a blank workbook and immediately change focus by pressing ALT+TAB to enter NotePad the userform is shown and exits normally after 4 seconds.

However, when I issue this code from within a larger macro, and hit ALT+TAB to Notepad, the excel application hangs on the displayed userform until I click back into Excel.

If required, I can happily send you the code as an attachment.

Automatically Open, Copy, And Close Multiple Workbooks

Jul 26, 2006

I have 77 excel workbooks that are created each week, they are all in the same directory. I have to open each one and copy the data into a single workbook. The file names change slightly each week.

example: DIST_91124_GROWTH_PRODUCT XXX _07072006.xls The 07072006 is the week ending date and will change. Each of the 77 files has a different DIST_number.

Is there a way to automate this process, it takes me about 4 hours to do it manually.

Save Workbook On Workbook Close

Aug 26, 2006

I snagged this code out from another project I wrote, and it works fine in that one, but doesn't in the new project.

What I want, is when the person presses the exit button, it will save whatever was done, its running as a form printer and database. The code below is the code for my exit button.

Private Sub CommandButton4_Click()
Dim sAnswer As String
Dim i As Integer

' ****************
' ** Exit Button**
' ****************

When it gets to "If ActiveWorkbook.Saved = False Then" it does put the question out "Do you want to save changes" I click Yes and it doesn't save it.. I have tried both activeworkbook and thisworkbook ... I copied the code and verified all is good to go..

Automatically Calculating Shift Start Times

Sep 20, 2013

I'm currently working on a rota for which I would like the worksheet to automatically tell me how many staff members I have beginning their shift before 9am and those finishing after 7pm. I currently have this working via a very crude set of IF statements for each staff member for each day of the week, returning 1 if true and 0 if false. Then I have a sum statement at the bottom of each day. Is there a much tidier and simpler way for me to calculate this?

I've attached the worksheet. A quick note is in Q52.

Close A New Workbook After Email

May 7, 2009

I have the below code in a macro attached to a button. Basically, if i choose yes to the message box at the beginning then the macro copies the all the cells on the sheet 'selections', opens up a new workbook, pastes into here, deletes some unused cells, rows and columns, then sends the sheet as an attachment on an e-mail.

What i also need to do is when i have sent the e-mail, the macro closes the new workbook without saving changes.

Close Workbook With Macro

Sep 22, 2009

I have a workbook that contains 4 macros. This workbook is copied by vb.net application with another name. When I run the macro in the copied worksheet, the Original file/workbook is opened automatically, and it is open until the copied workbook is closed.

My question:

1) Is this normal, when a copied workbook invokes a macro from the original workbook, the original workbook opens?

2) Is it possible to close the original workbook while executing the macro from the copied workbook?

3) Will that affect the macro in the copied workbook?

4) If possible to close the original workbook, kindly help me with the code.

Workbook Before Close Event

Jul 22, 2008

I have a sheet that on open looks at the username and determines which tabs can be seen by that user. If macro's are not enabled, I want the sheet to just display sheet 4.

here is the code I have on open that works fine: -

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If Environ("username") = "Bob" Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = True
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = False
Else
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
End If
End Sub

I have a Workbook_BeforeClose() function that does not, and I am stuck as to why!

Here it is: -

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose()
If Environ("username") = "Bob" Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
ThisWorkbook.Save
Else
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
End If
End Sub

So basically after "Bob" is done it will save the sheet with only tab 4 visable. This means that if someone without Macros enabled opens the sheet they can only view tab 4 (I know it isn't password protected in this example, but it will be)

Save Workbook & Close

Jul 8, 2006

One of my computers pulls info from my cash register once everyday (sales info). Then I have a excel monthly sales sheet that pulls the info from the register info and puts it in the right places. So the computer pulls the register info at 9:20pm everyday, then I have my task manager open excel at 9:25 everyday and it has a workbook open macro to automatically pull the info into the excel spreadsheet. Here's my problem-- I need to close it.

I'm sure I could use a workbook close macro, but when it tries to close it won't it come up with a save, don't save, cancel prompt? Nobody will be there to hit SAVE so it won't close? Is there just a macro that could save it then close it?

I have an Excel workbook that runs some code in the back. When I close the workbook file it seems to close OK. However if I then open the VBA editor window I still see the file in the project explorer. If I re-open and then close I have 2 instances in the project explorer... and so on. I have tried setting all objects to nothing etc. but the problem still manifests itself.
