Closing Word Doc

[keenanbr]

When closing a word document is there a way I can stop the 'Do you want to save' message popping up.

Word uses a slightly different version of the same property. Instead
of accepting a Boolean value, Word uses three Long constants: wdAlertsNone,
wdAlertsAll and wdAlertsMessageBox. The first two settings are
fairly self-explanatory. The last setting tells Word to display
only standard message box alerts.

Under normal conditions, the code statement:

ActiveDocument.Close

would generate a message box asking if you wanted to save the document
in question. Using the DisplayAlerts property, the following code

Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone
ActiveDocument.Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsAll

would immediately open the SaveAs dialog box without the initial
prompt.

I never want the user to save the document. The user just fills in fields and prints. I have a template attached to the doc and in the Close_Document i put

ActiveDocument.save = True

This accomplishes the task as required.

ActiveDocument.Save[!]d[/!] = True

Hope This Helps, PH.
