force a command button to be pushed before exit

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
If you are referring to a Userform, you can use this
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer)
   If CloseMode = vbFormControlMenu Then
      Cancel = True
      MsgBox "Please use the ""Close"" button.", vbCritical, "Illegal Exit"
   End If
End Sub
