Try this: Open a document, change to page view (or scroll view, if you started in page view) now click the close box. In my Fin2k2b I get prompted to save. Cancelling out to check the undo list won't work, because undo is still grayed out (there is nothing in the undo buffer). I can tell you a dozen actions that do not change anything in the file and still will give you a save prompt. You don't even have to try to close the document, as the icon in the title bar of the window will dim as soon as Finale has decided it will ask you to save the next time you quit or close. (This is Mac) Here are some examples: -print -change to the layout tool and back to any other tool -open a speedy entry box and close it again without doing anything (still no undo) -in the articulation tool click a note and cancel Any of these will lead to a save prompt as soon as you close or quit. None of these creates an undo entry.
