Save Pop-up Not Appearing When Closing
Jan 9, 2008Something seems to have happened to my Excel. When I make changes and close the workbook or application, the pop-up box asking "Do you want to save the changes you made to [Book1]?" no longer shows up.
So far I've tried running a macro with Application.DisplayAlerts = True, but that only seems to work while the macro is running.

How To Fix Column Width And Save It Before Closing File
May 30, 2002I am trying to fix the width of a column everytime I open it but I can't. After I have fixed the column width and saved it before I close the file, when i reopen it, the column width will expand. The data source of that column is a real time query. I tried to lock the cell but when i locked it, I can't refresh the data from the query as it is locked. So, is there any way for me to achieve that?

Closing The Workbook From A Dialog Control
Jun 28, 2006I have a spreadsheet that automatically opens a dialog box when the workbook is opened. This is a little disclaimer intended for other users of the spreadsheet, which if they click ok it simply closes the dialog sheet, but if they click cancel I want it to kick them out of the Workbook without asking them to save changes. I only want it to close that specific workbook incase they have others open that they haven't saved, etc.
The dialog box is opened as follows:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
DialogSheets("Splash Screen").Show
End Sub
The code I have tried for the closing of the workbook is done by assigning the following macro to the cancel button (note, all but one of the sheets in my workbook is hidden and protected, including the dialog sheet):
Sub Splash_Close()
'
ThisWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
'
'Also tried ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
'Application.Quit (This closes all excel documents)
'
End Sub
I know there is something I am missing, keeping in mind I am quite experienced with excel, but relatively new to macros and VB programming.
Just a bit extra on this problem. I am creating the file as a template *.xlt, and the error I get when trying to run the example macro I gave at the start is a 1004 error Method close of object _workbook failed.
Also, in an ineresting (baffling for me at the moment) twist is that once you hit end on the error and it just goes to the first page of your spreadsheet, you can then go to ToolsMacros and run the macro from there, and it closes the workbook exactly the way I want it to!
Close File Without "Save Changes" Dialog Box?
Aug 31, 2009I have a summary file (I'll call it File A) from which a macro is run. It opens other files, finds a "total line" then copies it into File A. Then it closes that file, opens another, and repeats the process. The macro works fine for most of the files it opens and closes, but on some of them, upon the close command, a dialog box pops up asking "Do you want to save the changes you made to "File B.xls"?
I'm not sure why this comes up as there were no changes made. Cells were only copied and pasted into another file. Is there a way to stop this annoying box from popping up? It slows down the macro by waiting for human input. here is my
Macro To Check If Saved Then Save Else Bring Up Save As Dialog
Sep 6, 2012I'm trying to make a macro check if a file has been saved (ever). If so I want the macro to do a regular save (with already esatablished filename and location) before it proceeds with the rest of the macro. If the file hasnt been saved (if it runs from a new workbook) then I want it to pop up the save.as dialog, so that the user can choose the name and location of the file before the macro continues .

Macro To Bring Up Save As Dialog Box
Feb 20, 2007I am modifying a corporate macro that is used in to create a standard technical letter. This standard file has 6 macros, that once used to create the letter, are never used again. I know, the first thing that jumps out is to create an add-in. I'd prefer not to got hat route at the moment for various reasons.
What I'm looking to do is after the letter is created, and the print macro is called and prints the letter, all macros are removed (already found help for this on this site), then check to see if the file has been saved, or still has the template name, and then either save or bring up the save as dialog box for the user to save the file with the appropriate name and folder.
Save Backup Copy Before Closing
Aug 18, 2007I was able to find the coding that I needed for being able to have a backup of my file. So when I save a workbook and close I also get a backup copy in another folder that is dated. But I am having problems getting the code to work. Probably because I do not understand it correctly. Here it is.
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs "C:Documents and SettingsTeacherDesktopTEST" & _
Format( Date, "yyyy-mm-dd") & " - " & ThisWorkbook. Name
End Sub
Where it has, ThisWorkbook.Name, do I put the name of the workbook? Not sure.
Suppress Save Dialog On Before Close Event
Jan 5, 2014I have a command button code on a sheet that checks if all the cells in a table have been completed before saving the worksheet. If they're not all complete a userform message box pops up with a reminder then returns to the sheet without saving. I want to be able to call this from the 'BeforeClose' event as well however, even though it still does what it's supposed to do, after the userform message box has displayed and been unloaded then it still pops up the Save Dialog box.
I'm struggling to suppress the Save Dialog box and return to the sheet.

Jun 30, 2008I am in the process of setting up an Excel invoice. So far I have managed to implement the following:
On open: Incrementing invoice number
Cells cleared ready for next use
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Sales Invoice").Range("H2").Value = Sheets("Sales Invoice").Range("H2").Value + 1 .....................
There is only one task left I need to automate. On closing the document I would like a copy to be saved in a specific folder and be given the file name of a cell (B9). Obviously I would not want the 'saved copy' to retain the Incrementing invoice number or the clear cells function. Even if the invoice copy was exported as a flat jpeg that would be fine. I am using Office Exce 2003 (Sp2) - I have attached my invoice should anyone be kind enough to take a look.
