Hello Dave,
From your post, my understanding on this issue is: you wonder why the
workbook.Saved property is true when it is a newly created workbook. If I'm
off base, please feel free to let me know.
I reproduced the issue by running the following macro in Excel 2007/2003
Sub NewWorkbook()
Dim book As workbook
Set book = Workbooks.Add
MsgBox book.Saved
End Sub
The code above pop out the message box "True".
Actually, if we create a workbook in Excel by clicking on the File->New
button, then close the workbook, Excel will not show the "Save Workbook"
dialog only if we edit something in the worksheet. Excel regards all the
newly created empty workbook as invalid by design. This behavior is
consistent in all versions of Excel.
Please let me know if you have any other concerns, or need anything else.
Sincerely,
Jialiang Ge (
