=CLOSE() Returns a Macro Error on Protected Worksheet |
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Excel for Windows, versions 2.x, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0
- Microsoft Excel for OS/2, versions 2.2, 3.0
SUMMARY
When the =CLOSE() command is used in a macro that closes a protected worksheet, Microsoft Excel produces a macro error.
This only happens when the worksheet has window protection, whether the =CLOSE() command parameter is true, false, or none. This occurs because the =CLOSE() command is the same command that is available on the worksheet's control menu. A macro error is produced because there is no control menu on a window-protected worksheet.
(Note: this is also true for version 5.0 macro sheets, but not modules.)
Solution
To correct the problem, use =FILE.CLOSE(). This command is available on any worksheet, whether it is protected or not.
