I'm using the BeforeSave function and usng the code that is in the Microsoft Excel VB help section under BeforeSave. When you click save, a box is supposed to pop up asking if you really want to save. If you click "no" then it isn't supposed to save. Only when I click no it saves anyway. Any ideas? Thanks

I just tried it and it works as illustrated.
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    Dim a As Variant
    a = MsgBox("Do you really want to save the workbook?", vbYesNo)
    If a = vbNo Then Cancel = True
End Sub
Not sure why yours would not work properly. DimensionalSolutions@Core.com

What you have down there is exactly what I have. I even tried putting it in a blank workbook and still didn't work.
 
What version of Excel are you using? I ran this test on 97. DimensionalSolutions@Core.com
