save and close without asking

I have this code in excel. What it does is it minimizes the excel window takes a print screen of whatever is behind it then brings up word pastes it in word then brings the excel window to normal.

But, I need/want it to save the word doc as the string (saveit) and then close without asking anything.

any help

Code:

---

Private Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, ByVal _
  bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)
Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

Private Const VK_SNAPSHOT = &H2C



Sub PrintScreen2Word()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Dim saveit As String

saveit = "thisisatest"

    'Minimize Excel
    Application.WindowState = xlMinimized
    'Wait 2 seconds to allow time for the minimization
    Sleep (2000)
    'Take Screen Shot
    keybd_event VK_SNAPSHOT, 0, 0, 0
    'Open a new Word document
    Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    wrdApp.Visible = True
    Set wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Add
    'Paste
    wrdApp.Selection.Paste
    'some error checkin
    Set wrdDoc = Nothing
    Set wrdApp = Nothing
 
Application.WindowState = xlNormal
 
 
   
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

    End Sub

WrdDoc.SaveAs _
Filename:="C:\Documents and Settings\Computer 1\My Documents\pleasework.doc"
  wrdApp.Quit

i did that.. anyone got anything better this seems to work

As a matter of cleanliness, I would actually specifically close the Word doc, but it can also be argued that it will be cleaned up without doing so. Code to do that would be as follows. (I *think* that the savechanges:=false will work for Word as it does for Excel).

[vba]WrdDoc.SaveAs _
Filename:="C:\Documents and Settings\Computer 1\My Documents\pleasework.doc"
wrdDoc.Close savechanges:=false
wrdApp.Quit[/vba]

One question I have though... why are you setting the Word application visible? If you're just pasting a picture in and saving the file, do you really need Word to flash by? I'd be very surprised if it didn't work just fine without doing so.

you're right, I didn't even realize that. It's runs much cleaner now that i set it to false.

thanks for picking that up
