You are welcome, though I would still treat such a macro with caution.

A minor addition to Stefan's macro will limit the macro to
the one document.

Excellent! Thanks, Graham!

Just to clarify, there's no way to set a particular document "Don't
ask to save changes when closing me", right?

No - the macro is as close as you will get. You could tie it to a particular
version of that file by adding the path eg

Sub DoNotSaveChanges()
Dim strName As String
strName = ActiveDocument.FullName
If strName = "c:\path\Document name.doc" Then
ActiveDocument.Close savechanges:=False
End If
End Sub

In the template from which the document is created, create macros with the
names:

FileClose()
FileCloseAll()
FileCloseorCloseAll()
FileCloseorExit()
FileExit()

each of which contain the command

ActiveDocument.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges

Thanks, Graham. At least now I know. :-)
