Love the save and close command in Outlook and am hoping Word 2007 has same
command but can't find it. Sure would be a time-saver. Is there one
available?

Closing a document in Word 2007 will give you the option to save it if there
are changes that require saving, otherwise it just closes.
or
You could create a macro to save and close and add it to the QAT

Sub SaveAndClose()
ActiveDocument.Close savechanges:=wdSaveChanges
End Sub

Option to save when closing is an extra step - and I've known that feature on
word for eons. Just starting using Outlook with the 1-click option and love
it.

My screen name has "basic" in it because I am not very computer-savvy. If
creating a "macro" and saving it to the "QAT" isn't too hard, I'd like to do
it. Of course, I don't know what a macro is or a QAT so maybe it's beyond
me? If you can give instructions in layman's terms, I'm game to try. Thanks.

See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
The relevant macro code was posted in my earlier message. The above link
shows what to do with it.
