Hi Vinu, I looked at the link provided by you.
I have attached a workbook with this email, i hope this resolves your problem. I have used the following code: Private Sub Workbook_Open() 'Advise the user the workbook will close if inactive for 10 seconds. 'To adjust the time, such as if you want to allow 1 hour and 15 minutes, 'change this line Application.OnTime Now + TimeSerial(0, 45, 0), "CloseMe" Application.OnTime Now + TimeSerial(0, 60, 0), "CloseMe" 'and remember to update the message box. MsgBox "This workbook will close itself after 10 seconds.", 48, "FYI..." Application.OnTime Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 10), "CloseMe" End Sub This code will fire a ontime macro, which will run as follows: 1) After 45 mins, user will get a warning message that the sheet will close after 15 mins 2) After 60 mins, the sheet will close The following code needs to be placed in the Module: Private Sub CloseMeWarning() MsgBox "45 mins have elapsed, you have 15mins left on the exam!", vbCritical + vbOKOnly End Sub End Sub Private Sub CloseMe() ThisWorkbook.Close True End Sub End Sub Cheers!
