Disable Save Prompt 2

[medieval]

I have used the command ActiveDocument.Close but
how do you disable the Window Prompt which asks you if
you wish to save the document prior to closing it.

thanks for reading this.

Hiya,

try using [tt]application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone[/tt]

HTH

PS you'll need to switch DisplayAlerts back on once your code has finished: use [tt]Applciation.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsAll[/tt]
If you don't, Word will not show any propts until you close & reopen the app

Hi Nikki,

That was a really quick reply. Thank you.
However this did not work. :-(
I am using MS Word, does this make a difference ?

Hiya

Question: d'you want the document saved or do you just want to close the document without saving any changes?

Try this just before the close:
ActiveDocument.Saved = True

Hope This Help, PH.

Well, just to close it without having it saved.

 

[Nikita6003]

[tt]ActiveDocument.Close False[/tt] will close the doc without saving
Alternatively, add PHV's line to your code just before the [tt]ActiveDocument.Save[/tt] bit
