VBA Workbook Savechanges = False still saving and closing workbook when running Macro

Question

I have a main workbook that extracts data from other workbook sheets, then closes the modified workbook suppressing the save option.

other_wb.Close Savech

Answer 1

Savechanges is an undefined variable. It is therefore Empty; Empty is falsy, so the expression Savechanges = False evaluates to True, so the call becomes other_wb.Close True, which saves the file.

You are missing the colon:

other_wb.Close Savechanges:= False

Put Option Explicit on top of all your code modules to never have to deal with this kind of issues.
