Save option on close

[terilad]

Hi,

Can someone help me to stop the pop up box if a document has changed and you
hit close it appears with a message box do you want to save changes, I am
looking to stop this pop up, is there a macro to stop this from happening so
the document just closes without asking to save.

Many thanks

Mark

So you _want_ to lose all the changes you worked on all day?

The macro is simply

Sub CloseWithoutSave()
ActiveDocument.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges
Application.Quit
End Sub

which you can assign to a keyboard shortcut or a button.

But don't come whining that you closed a document without saving and now you
want it back -- there won't be anything to recover!
