[mso] Re: How can I get Excel 2007 to close when I close the last open workbook

Thanks, Dave, for your response. But the leaving of Excel open after the
last workbook close did not happen to me in 2003: Excel itself was also
closed; that's why it has become frustrating in 2007. I don't understand why
Excel (i.e. Microsoft) should make the (to me, arrogant) assumption that you
still want to use the application even when you have closed down the last
instance.

Hasn't Excel always done this?  If I close all open workbooks in 2003, it 
leaves Excel open with a grey screen.  You need to Alt-F4 or X Excel to 
close it down completely.
