Description

The Close method has the following arguments.

Argument

Description

objecttype

One of the following intrinsic constants:

acDefault (default)
acForm
acMacro
acModule
acQuery
acReport
acTable

objectname

A string expression that's the valid name of an object of the type selected by the objecttype argument.

save

One of the following intrinsic constants:

acSaveNo
acSavePrompt (default)
acSaveYes

If you leave this argument blank, the default constant (acSavePrompt) is assumed.


Remarks

If you leave the objecttype and objectname arguments blank (the default constant, acDefault, is assumed for objecttype), Microsoft Access closes the active window. If you specify the save argument and leave the objecttype and objectname arguments blank, you must include the objecttype and objectname arguments' commas.
