Disabling "Auto" questions in Microsoft Word & Excel
Lollip21 12/17/2008 10:05:15 AM
I have some documents that I have password protected that users will be
accessing to print and read. If they print the document when they exit it
will ask them if they want to save. I want to know how to disable this
question from appearing. Also when I have a different program (that I know is
safe) accessing my email is it possible to disable those "auto" questions?
Thanks!

There is no foolproof way of doing so as you would require a macro in the
document and there is no way that you can force a user to run the macro, but
if you want to try it

Sub AutoClose
ActiveDocument.Saved - True
End Sub

will kill the save on exit prompt and close the document without saving it.
