Title: Office Annoyance
Post by: Simon on July 03, 2003, 18:47

This is not a problem as such, more of an irritation.  I tend to leave Outlook running in the background, which I think is fairly common practise, but I'm very lazy when it comes to shutting down my PC.  I usually just hit the shutdown button, without bothering to close everything else first, and it does it all for you, however, if I forget to close down Outlook before shutting down, I get nagged by Office, which refuses to close unless I close it separately.  

Well, I don't want to!  It's my computer - I'M IN CHARGE!!  ::)  Does anyone know how to get Office to close with everything else when I shutdown Windows?
