Mandatory Cell Inputs - Close Loop

Hello all

I have a workbook that needs to go to various external stakeholders. I need them to fill a number of fields. I have named the range of these fields "Mandatory".

However, there are occasions where the external stakeholder may not be ready to fill the form in after viewing it and I need internal stakeholders to be able to view and use the workbook without the need for them to fill these fields and be able to close the file.

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim rng As Range
    Dim c As Variant
    Dim rngCount As Integer
    Dim CellCount As Integer


    Set rng = Range("Mandatory")
    rngCount = rng.Count


    CellCount = 0
    For Each c In rng
        If Len(c) > 0 Then
            CellCount = CellCount + 1
       
        End If
        
        Next c
    
    If CellCount <> rngCount Then
    
    MsgBox "Please fill Mandatory Fields", vbExclamation, "Required Entry"
    
   Cancel = True
        
    End If


Does anyone have any any ideas of what I can do to get around this loop?

Many thanks

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Try:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim c As Variant
    Dim rngCount As Integer
    Dim CellCount As Integer
    Set rng = Range("Mandatory")
    rngCount = rng.Count
    CellCount = 0
    For Each c In rng
        If Len(c) > 0 Then
            CellCount = CellCount + 1
        End If
    Next c
    If CellCount <> rngCount Then
        If MsgBox("Do you wish to fill in the Mandatory Fields", vbYesNo, "Required Entry") = vbYes Then
            Cancel = True
        Else
            'do nothing
        End If
    End If
End Sub
