Hi all,

I am working on a macro that makes users click "Enable Content" mandatorily to access the workbook, works like a charm, except I have a macro which does a .SaveAs under a different name, and it automatically closes my original file, but doesn't initiate the "Workbook_BeforeClose" code I have in it.

Is there a way around this?

I do want to close the original doc, but have the "Workbook_BeforeClose" to run in it. I have to have my new workbook to be my active workbook, as the .SaveAs macro does a lot of things to it referring to a workbook object which equals my 'ActiveWorkbook'. (new wb is also an xlsm)

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks!

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
The original file does not close, you've simply changed the name (and possibly location), hence the beforeclose does not trigger.
Why not put the BeforeClose code into a standard module & then call it from both routines?
