Inactive timer trying to quit the access app. However, the bound form has some fields left incomplete are set to "required". This prompts the message "You can't save this record at this time" which requires user input to click yes or not; until then the app is not closed which goes against inactive timer close.
How to suppress this prompt "You can't save this record at this time" or any other way to handle it without requiring input from the user. Thanks in advance. Below is the actual code.
