How to close an .xlam file

[rdw72777]

So I can open and edit an .xlam file in the VBEditor window, but I can't figure out how to close it except to close out of Excel entirely and re-open. I can't close it by click the File-> Close because it jsut closes the VBEditor window but the .xlam is still open.

(So for my dumbest question ever) how can I close an .xlam file without closing out of Excel altogether.

I suspect this would work in the immediate window of the VBE:

Workbooks("YourXlamFilename.xlam").Close SaveChanges:=True  'or False

So is code always needed to close an .xlam file. That just seems odd to me, but what do I know.

It seems so. So far that is the only way I could find to do it. Actually, fastest one.

The other one is:
Office Button>Excel Options, select Addins in the left hand pane, click the Go button and then uninstall.
