Problem with excel

[micks]

I have this spreadsheet that was set up by someone who has now left my job and just wondering if some one here could help
most likely something simple but this is way over my head any head appreciated

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim i, j As Integer
Dim texte As String
Dim Wksht As Worksheet
 
On Error Resume Next 'Fermeture de Data Passdown
Workbooks(Range("NameDataPassdown").Value).Close SaveChanges:=False
On Error GoTo 0
If Userallowed = False Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
If Range("Freeaccess").Value = True Then
Or ActiveWorkbook.ReadOnly Then Exit Sub
SortieSansEnregistrement = True
Sheets("LOG").Select
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
Range("RefID").End(xlDown).Select
On Error GoTo 0
Call Enregistrement 'Affichage feuille warning + enregistrement
If MsgBox("Passdown is already saved." & Chr(10) & _
    "Do you want to create a new copy in the Free To Use Folder ?" & Chr(10) & Chr(10) & _
    "A copy must be created at the end of each shift.", vbYesNo) = vbNo Then Exit Sub
'Je cache les feuilles non free to use + administrator pour access a tous
Call AffichFeuillesUtilisateurs
'J'autorise l'acces de tous au fichier dans Folder "Free to use" avant de sauvegarder
Range("Freeaccess").Value = 1
'Sauvegarde d'une copie actualisee dans Folder "Free to use"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
    Range("filename").Value & " Passdown by " & Range("Currentuser").Value & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy hh-mm-ss") & ".xls"

some is in french but the line
Or ActiveWorkbook.ReadOnly Then Exit Sub
comes up in red when attempting to debug

Red as in a breakpoint? Or Red as an error occurs on that line? If Error whats the error your getting?

thanks for reply

previously when we'd close this spreadsheet we'd a questions asking do we want to save in another location for access as its locked when editing

now when we close we get a
"compile error:syntax error"
then visual basic editor opens and the first line "Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)" is highlighted in yellow and the line
"Or ActiveWorkbook.ReadOnly Then Exit Sub" is highlighted as if cursor is dragged across it and then when clicked on its the only line in red.i assumed a problem but maybe a breakpoint i dont know anything about this .

It would be red as in an error.

As there is no matching "End If" for the previous line, I would guess that they are supposed to be combined, eg:

If Range("Freeaccess").Value = True _
Or ActiveWorkbook.ReadOnly Then Exit Sub

Oh, and welcome to VBForums micks!
