Hi,
take this:

Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal
lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Private Declare Function OpenClipboard Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As
Long
Private Declare Function EmptyClipboard Lib "user32" () As Long
Private Declare Function CloseClipboard Lib "user32" () As Long

Public Sub CleanClipBoard()
OpenClipboard FindWindow("xlMain", vbNullString)
EmptyClipboard
CloseClipboard
end sub

i have a macro that opens numerous excel spreadsheets in an array and
pastes data into sheets in a master document. after each paste the
source spreadsheet is closed, then the loop begins again by opening the
next spreadsheet in the array.

the problem i have is the message stating that "there is a large amount
of data still on the clipboard etc.." when each source spreadsheet is
closed. This requires me to manually select "NO" at the end of every
loop, to inform Excel that i do not need this data to be stored for
future use (as i have already pasted it).

is there a way of disabling this, or coding something in the macro to
automatically select "NO" when prompted by the clipboard message.

any ideas welcomed!
