Post #105,416 by mmoffitt 6/9/03 5:11:48 PM Reply	Did you get this fixed? If not,... you might try setting the "DisplayAlerts" property to false. I'm having a similar problem with Powerpoint right now. I'm trying to PostMessage WM_CLOSE and it won't work because I have a modal dialog. This doesn't happen w/XL when the DisplayAlerts property is set to true and so far I've been unable to find a way w/Powerpoint to turn the damned Alerts off! (you can't close an MS office app w/a modal dialog displayed - even if the modal dialog is not visible). hth. bcnu, Mikem The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong.

Post #105,422 by ChrisR 6/9/03 5:18:02 PM Reply	DisplayAlerts actually made it worse... ...because when it didn't close the files down successfully (same as before), but it also didn't give me a choice when I load up the files manually whether I wanted to keep the changes. For now, I can modify the files and then open them up in Excel. I'm having to go in a manually change a few things that anyhow, so it's no time burner. Will try to fix it one of these days. Saw [link\|http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-win32/2002-October/000528.html\|Someone Else] had a similar problem in Python.

Best guess: there's a dialog box waiting for user input - (tseliot) - (2) - May 30, 2003, 05:34:30 PM EDT

I thought the DisplayAlerts property might be it - (ChrisR) - May 30, 2003, 08:18:48 PM EDT

Dunno if this applies, but... - (mmoffitt) - (2) - May 30, 2003, 07:39:18 PM EDT

del(obj) should do the same in Python - (ChrisR) - (1) - May 30, 2003, 08:20:34 PM EDT
