| FileName | Optional | Variant | Saves changes under this file name. |
| RouteWorkbook | Optional | Variant | If the workbook doesn't need to be routed to the next recipient (if it has no routing slip or has already been routed), this argument is ignored. Otherwise, Microsoft Excel routes the workbook according to the value of this parameter.

Remarks
Closing a workbook from Visual Basic doesn't run any Auto_Close macros in the workbook. Use the RunAutoMacros method to run the Auto_Close macros.
