I'm trying to put the finishing touches on a time sheet I've made. So far I've got a macro working to convert it to a PDF and email it, but I would like to add another feature. I would like to add some VBA code at the end of the macro to quit the excel application without saving it so that when it's re-opened it won't contain any other from the day before. Is this possible? FYI, I'm new to this and I've only progressed this far from reading info posted on this and other formus.
