Is there a way to remove the Cancel button when the user clicks the "X" button in the upper-right corner of the Word window

I wrote the following but it didnt seem to work

Code:

Private Sub Document_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
    If ActiveDocument.Saved = False Then
        Select Case MsgBox("Do you want to save changes to this document?", vbYesNo + vbExclamation + vbDefaultButton1, "Microsoft Word")
            Case vbYes
                ActiveDocument.Save
            Case vbNo
                'Do nothing
        End Select
    End If
End Sub

Pl assist. Thanks.

This shouldn't be necessary as Word should prompt regardless if the document is unsaved.

Hi Gmayor

I want to disable the save prompt and customize it to only a (save and quit) and a (don't save and quit) prompt. Is there anyway it can be customize? Thanks.
