Excel kept on asking to save file every time I jump from one sheet to another!

Hi,

I am working on this Excel file that has hyperlinks and some small
macro. I used hyperlinks to jump from one sheet to another, and the
file didn't have any volatile function. We post the file onto the
sharepoint and set the sharepoint permission to "Read Only". when we
open the file directly from the sharepoint and try to navigate around,
the file kept on asking us to save changes every time we click on the
hyperlinks; even though we didn't make any changes. I couldn't figure
out whether there is a problem with Sharepoint or with the Excel File
itself. Please let me know if you have any idea.

I hope I asked this in the right group, if not, please point me in the
right
direction.


Thanks,
Tim

Are you sure you don't get this message even if it isn't sharepoint?

It's easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission :-)

Hi Ken,

The message never occur on my computer with or without accessing
sharepoint. But however, my coworkers sometimes get that message. we
are sharing the file accross the regions and all of the people from
different regions recieved the message asking to save the file every
time they jump from one sheet to another.

Thanks,
Tim

Are any of the macros event macros?

It seems weird that it doesn't happen to you, yet it happens to others.

Hi Ken,

Yes, I have used the "worksheet_Activate" event for the macros.

OK, so if you have your macro do anything within the file you are likely to
get that message when you try to close it. What does your macro do?
