Hey everyone...

I want to limit the Excel users to save their files atleast 15 minutes after they have last saved it. The files are on dropbox server and I would want them to not use extra bandwidth due to my limited internet data plans.

However, if the user decides to close the workbook . He should be prompted by a dialog box asking them to save file or not or cancel the close operation. If Save gets selected then vba should save the workbook regardless of the time binding condition.

Could be done?

Much appreciation and regards,
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Well the Save dialog should appear automatically, and this should point you in the right direction.
