what's CTRL+W do?

[el zorro]

I hit the Ctrl+W combination by accident and my Excel
sheet disappeared. What's that command do?

 

[Richard O. Neville]

It closes the document. You must have saved the document, or had an
automatic save, first; otherwise you would get a prompt to save or not save
changes.

Ctrl-W = Close Workbook
