help with workbook

[Craig]

This may sound a bit cheeky, I'm just starting to learn macro's etc in
Excel, but I'm looking for a spreadsheet quite quickly and you guys seem
very knowledgeable in this group.
I want a spreadsheet which will auto save and close in say 10mins if no data
has been entered in this time, with a message box pop up in say the last
10sec with a countdown, which can be cancelled either by a cancel button in
the same box or by entering data in the workbook.
Also a box on the front page with a "tick box" or similar to enable/disable
the macro.
I know this may not be rocket science for the more experienced, but I'm
anything but a rocket scientist, I will give it a go myself, but I also need
it in a hurry.
If anybody could point me in the right direction, or even better if somebody
could make me one I do not mind giving a small donation for their trouble.
(the cheeky part)
Bearing in mind I'm very much the amateur...

You are likely to find that if there is a form that allows users to check a
box so the form doesn't close on them after ten minutes, the will check it
as soon as they open the workbook.

There is a sample spreadsheet at this site that will get you started:

If you need more help after looking through the sample and searching for
other samples, ask another question.
