Is there a way to have an Excel 2010 workbook to open and save and close each day by its self? Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Save Often
If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
You could use task scheduler (PC or server) to open it at a set time - then have the spreadsheet auto-run with a close at the end.

For what purpose?
What is it supposed to do?

Conceivably, you could add Workbook_Open VBA code that automatically runs when a workbook opens. You could put the save/close code in there (along with anything else that you might want to happen).
Then, you could use a Scheduler to open the file every day. So then it would open, do its stuff, and save/close.
You just need to make sure that the Scheduled job is on a computer that is on every day when it is supposed to run.

There is data that updates when the workbook opens. A code runs and makes changes but if it does not open everyday some data is lost.

OK. The methods proposed should do what you want.
