I am working on a project.

In this project the excel sheet may only be saved if some cells are filld in.
The form also only me be save if it’s an .xlm.

I got this working, but one of the excel comadd-ins is not listening to the do not save command in my workbook.
Wat happens is, is that when we save-as the window first pop-up correctly
But coms a second time thereafter.
When I turn this comadd-ins it works fine.
Now the problem is I can’t use:
application.comaddins("ApplicationAddin.AddinModule").connect = False

As this is blocked by Admin.
Is there another way to ignore this comadd-ins.
Or the prevent the second save-as window.
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
If you can switch the add-in off, the code should be able to as well. What error do you get when you try it?

Rory thanks for replying.
I don't get an error.
I get two times the save-as window.
the first time as intended (akkoording to my code)
the second time not as intended (this because of the plug-in

So this line doesn't error, it just does nothing:

Code:
application.comaddins("ApplicationAddin.AddinModule").connect = False

When I use that code I get the following error:
"Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)':
This add-in is installed for all users on this computer and can only be connected or disonnected by an administrator."

But in My code I removed this line, becauce off above error

Here is my current code:


Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
' set preference on save-as to xlsm
'    Cancel = True
'    stop if reviewer and review type not filled
    If Range("B1").Value = "Select type" Then
        response = MsgBox("You must choose a type before you can save your file.", vbCritical, "WARNING!")
        Exit Sub
    End If
    If Range("B3").Value = "" Then
        response = MsgBox("You must enter the date before you can save your file.", vbCritical, "WARNING!")
        Exit Sub
    End If
'force .xlsm
    If Not SaveAsUI Then Exit Sub
     
    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
     
    Cancel = True
         
    Dim FileName As String
    FileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(FileFilter:="Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm), *.xlsm")

    If FileName = "False" Then Exit Sub
         
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    ThisWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:=FileName, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
    

         
ErrorHandler:
    Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub

But you can manually unload it?

Yes I can Manually unload it, but this document is needed to be used by allot of people. That can’t or won’t do this.

So I want to automat this.

But I can’t use
Code:
[COLOR=#574123][FONT=Calibri]application.comaddins(ApplicationAddin.AddinModule").connect= False[/FONT][/COLOR]
because of the mentioned error

So is there another way to block input or the workings off COMadd-ins?

What I'm saying is that I find it strange that you can manually unload it but not do it in code. If that is the case, there really isn't anything you can do, as far as I know.
