[RESOLVED] MS Word: need help creating msgbox (save, run, cancel)?

How do I create a msg before running macro? I want to have 3 options within the msgbox, "save & run macro", "run macro" and "cancel".
If the user has not saved, the msgbox should ask if they want to save and then run the macro, or just run the macro or just cancel out.
Thanks in advance.

Also, Im using Word.

This is VBA right?

with Word, its VBA i believe, yes.

You were talking about macros so I figured it was either Excel VBA or Word VBA.

Anyway, this is the section for this type of question. :)

Moved to Office Development

Please advise if this is the correct and the most efficient way of doing this.

1. Create a UserForm1 and then call it as soon as the macro is run?
2. Within the UserForm1 I will have 3 buttons, "Save & Run", "Run" and "Cancel.
3. Tie those 3 buttons to the respective functions.
3a. I dont know what the function calls for those are.

You cant use the default MsgBox? vbYesNoCancel?

no clue how to use that.

Just one way:

VB Code:

Dim lRet As Long
    lRet = MsgBox("Do you want to Save & Run (Yes) or Run (No) the Macro?", vbYesNoCancel + vbQuestion)
    If lRet = vbYes Then
        'Save and Run
    ElseIf lRet = vbNo Then
        'Run
    Else
        'Cancel
    End If

ok, great. but what are the commands for save and run, run and cancel?

edit:
actually, i know how to run, just call that particular function. but how would i save? is there a save function?

What Macro? Why does it need to be saved? Are they recording a Macro or something? Need a little more info please. ;)

i want to prompt the users to save their work before running the macro, or just run the macro or just cancel.

sorry to be so vague.

ok, this is resolved, im calling "ActiveDocument.Save" and then the macro is being called to run. thanks a lot all.
