Any way to auto-close the excel application after finishing my macro run?
I tried this code,but it doesn't work... i added a sub and ran it like this:
Sub CloseandSave()
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=True
End Sub
to be more specific,there is a macro running,closes all open workbooks,but excel itself stays open...
As an example, I have this code to open a message box saying "Hello" when Excel opens.

I didn't receive a response to a previous post where I was trying to use a batch file to close and open a workbook at a scheduled time everyday. I was thinking about this problem over the weekend, and thought that it would probably be easier to just use a macro to close the file at a certain time everyday (if it is open) and then use a batch file to open the file a couple of minutes later.
I'm having problems with what I thought should be pretty simple though. I tried this to close the file at 5:15pm
I have a macro that auto opens does a couple of open and saves but then the Application.Close doesn't want to close the blank Excel screen. Can't you use Application Close in a Auto_Open macro?

Is there a code I can use, through a private command button, that will exit the Excel program (not just the current workbook) without asking to save?

My close routine closes the worksheets and workbooks. I then quit the application and I get a message asking if I want save the original spreadsheet.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I have a macro to run which will clear out all rows and move them corresponding sheets on the same workbook. At the minute i have this macro to run at 21.00 hours everyday. Is it possible to fire this macro to auto run before me closing a workbook so i don;t need to wait and also worksheet is saved with the latest changes
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet and I would like for it to automatically close after printing.
Long version: The sheet is set up with several fields that can be changed by the user, and the date/time are automatically entered upon opening the sheet. I want to ensure that all fields are reset, and the date/time are correctly updated, every time that the user uses the spreadsheet. The last thing the user will do when finished entering his information will be to print the form, so I figure this would be a good time to make the form close (if this is possible).
I have already entered a code to prevent the query "do you want to save changes" before closing. So when they open the spreadsheet it will always contain the same starting information.
Is there anyway that a workbook can be set up to close itself at a set time i.e 19.00hrs every day?
At the time of opening the file some macros are running automatically in my file as per my requirement. If auto filter is on then it disturbs my program. Sometimes I forget to remove auto filter before closing the file and it cause a problem in my file after opening it again.
Requirement is: Is there any code to prevent the file closing if the auto filter is on and give me a warning message 'Please remove auto filter first'.
I have a 'few' workbooks that I have added some code to which auto closes the workbook if it has been inactive for more than 60 minutes.
Problem seems to be is that this doesn't envoke if a screen saver is active, does anyone have any VB code to disable the screen saver until after the workbook has closed.
I have a menu workbook with macro buttons that call different workbooks. Call the menu workbook (switchgear.xlsm). Switchgear contains 2 buttons. Button 1 closes switchgear and opens Book1. Button 2 closes switchgear and opens book 2.
If book1 is open and nothing has changed for 3 minutes I would like it to close and open switchgear.xlsm. I do not want it to just close in 3 minutes... I want it to close after 3 minutes of inactivity.
I have search all over and tried and tried to achieve this without success...
I have been able to get the timer to work but it gets caught in a loop. If I open book1 and close it in less than a min then 3 minutes later out of nowhere the code tries to run???
Secondly when this happens I see several book1 vba projects loaded in the editor window???
I have an excel file stored on a network drive for the purpose of information sharing. (File protected with a password)
But some the guys leave the file open for quiet long time and hence I cannot open the file for updating the data.
-I need to have a macro that runs every 5 minutes and displays an alert message saying "Please close the File" as long as the file is kept open.
-A second macro with a modified version of the above to close the file automatically after 5 minutes from file opening time after showing an alert message "You cannot leave the File Open, File is Closed Automatically!"
I'm working on a time sheet, and to make it easier to enter time i created a macro that sets the auto correct to correct a "." to a ":", but when the workbook closes i want to run a macro that deletes the auto correct rule.
I have the following code that displays a form at a user defined time and if the user does not press "Stop" then the workbook saves and closes. The user can press stop then the workbook remains open.
Here is what I have where:
Admin_Auto_Shutdown = Yes or No
Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time = 3:34pm or user defined time (This doesn't seem to work??)
'Auto Shutdown CloseandSave
If UCase(wb.Worksheets("Admin"). Range("Admin_Auto_Shutdown").Value) = "YES" Then
Application .OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"
End If
Sub AutoShutdown()
Application.OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Show
End Sub
Now, my question is about a timer that I can show on a form. When the form is displayed I would like to give the user 30 seconds to press stop (and keep the workbook open) or to press proceed and save and close or to not do anything and the workbook would close and save when the timer reaches zero.
Code for user form which is missing most everything...
Private Sub Halt_Click()
'If user whats to continue without closing
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
End Sub
Private Sub Proceed_Click()
'If user whats to save and close
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
How do I add a timer to this code where it will run this at the end of the timer?
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook
.Saved = True
.Close
End With
I have a workbook, "A", that while open I need to be able to detect any type of activity within other open Excel workbooks "B...Z" that are simultaneously open.
I understand that I would need to use the Class Module with a Public WithEvents function but I am stuck here.
I have code that opens a .pdf file and copies the content to an excel spreadsheet.
However, in order to loop through multiple pdf's, I need to be able to close the Adobe Reader application before I open each new pdf file.
With excel being the active application, any suitable code to activate and close Adobe Reader?
I am trying to make a save&close workbook macro.
I found several examples on google, but unfortunatly it conflicts with another macro I use for forceing users to enable macros (hide all sheets except one if macros are disabled).
The attached file is an example contaning the save&close code and the show/hide sheets depending on macros enabled.
If the file is opened with macros disabled then only one sheet will be visible.
If the file is opened with macros enabled other sheets are visible.
The problem if that this code uses a custom save, witch makes the save&close not save... (in module1 and in ThisWorkbook)
The pourpose of the save&close is to make sure some users don't forget the excel open and thus block access to it. So if a certain idele time passes excel has to save and close without any confirmation messages.
This relates to Excel for Mac 2004
I'm trying to use Application.FileSearch in a procedure to open files in a folder one by one and then do some stuff. It works fine when I developed it on my Windows machine but won't work on the Mac platform. The culprit instruction seems to be the
Application.FileSearch instruction, and I've also tried what I think may be a Mac equivalent Application.FileFind, but I get the 'Object doesn't support this action' error.
So I wrote a simple procedure below just to test the .FileSearch instruction but this fails in the same way.
Any ideas anyone? I've commented out lines which relate to Windows syntax.
I have some code that I am using to save and close the active workbook, this code works perfectly, but I need the code to also close the excel application, not just the workbook. I have tried active window.close but it didn't work even though when I recorded the actions that was the code that I was give.
background -I set a task in my OS to open the workbook, then I wrote some code on the Workbook.open trigger to run and then save and close, but only the activebook closes.
The Application.FileSearch method is not available in excel 2007, is there a similar functionality I can use?

I encountered a strange anomaly where a worksheet "freezes" when Application.DisplayFormulaBar = False. I can only replicate this in Excel 2013. Excel 2010, for example, works perfectly well, and as expected.
[Code].....
To replicate the anomaly (Excel 2013 only):
1. In a new workbook, insert an ActiveX command button on "Sheet1", no code required.
2. Run the following code
[Code] .....
3. Click on the command button.
4. Now click on any cell and try to enter a value.
Is your screen "frozen"? If so, go to another sheet, return to Sheet1 and try again. Does it work?
Here's an alternative code for MyTest() that causes no problems. Can spot the difference? Is there a reasonable explanation?
[Code] ....
Even more curious, call the following MyTest3 on Workbook_Open() and the workbook behaves. Run MyTest3 again and the screen starts freezing(!)

I have a piece of code that was written by someone else (namely Phil_V, from these very forums) that only works in versions of Excel before 2007. I was just hoping that someone could update the code for me?
I know it's a lot to ask, but I simply don't have the expertise to do it myself I really appreciate any help received.
The code that needs updating is as follows:
I wrote a macro to list all the excel files from a directory and its sub-directories to an excel sheet. It is working in excel 2003 but shows error (object does not support this action) in 2007. Actually I have copied almost this entire macro from excel 2007 help only. Can somebody modify this to use in both the versions of excel?
View 6 Replies View RelatedFor those who use Application.FileSearch in Excel and Access, it's a huge pain that the object has been hidden in Office 2007.
I spent some time looking around for alternatives and have found two so far.
1. A FileSearch class that you can add to your project. Instead of using Application.FileSearch, you reference FileSearch instead
2. You can also use VBScript.
