To use this command within Word for Windows and still be prompted to save any changes made during the current session, you can use an AutoExit macro, like the following, to exit Windows when you exit Word for Windows. The AutoExit macro runs each time you close Word for Windows.

   Sub AutoExit
      Tasks.ExitWindows
   End Sub
