Cannot close Excel with X

[Mario]

Hello,

When I start Excel 2000 and I will close it again, I can't do this with the
X, when I click on the title bar the X becomes grey (not active). When I
choose File, Close the Save As screen appears.

I have solved this problem a long time ago but I really don't know anymore
what I did. Can anyone help me.

Thanks.

Mario

Are using using Groupwise?

If that's the problem. See this MSKB article

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;260199

Article is specific for 2000 but I think it is valid for other versions.

It gives a workaround (use the file menu) and instructions as to how to remove
the Groupwise add-in that is responsible for this behavior.
