Topic: Closing a Workbook

Introduction.  When you are finished working in a workbook, you should close
it. You can close workbooks without exiting Excel. If you choose to close a
workbook before you save it, a dialog box asks you if you want to save the
changes you made to the workbook.

The Close command appears on the File menu. This tutorial always directs you
to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-F4 to close a workbook. 


Exercise Objective.  In this exercise, you will close the Expenses.xls
workbook without exiting Excel.


Exercise: Closing a Workbook Without Exiting Excel
Complete the following two steps to close Expenses.xls without exiting
Excel.

Step 1:  Press Insert-T to verify Expenses.xls is the active Excel workbook.
JAWS announces, "Title Equals  Microsoft Excel - Expenses.xls."

Step 2:  Press Ctrl-F4 to close the workbook. JAWS announces, "Close
Document Window  Microsoft Excel." 

If you made changes to Expenses.xls since the last time you saved it, a
dialog box prompts you to save the workbook before closing it. Because you
saved this workbook in the previous exercise, the dialog box should not
appear. If a dialog box appears, press N to activate the No button. JAWS
announces, "Microsoft Excel." 

Once you close Expenses.xls, no workbook appears in the document window.
Microsoft Excel is still the active program.
