Jim,

At the beginning of your macro include the line:

Application.DisplayAlerts=False

This will suppress the dialog box. Excel will then assume you are saying
'Yes'.

It is also good practice to include the line at the end of your macro:

Application.DisplayAlerts=True

Have a look at the help file notes on this.

Regards
Paul

I have a worksheet that I use as a "template" - layout, formatted
correctly,
etc.. When I start my macro I copy that template to a working worksheet
where I start to populate data, formulas. The template has named ranges
in
it. When I copy it I get a message asking me to copy teh named range, or
point to another reference soemwhere on my computer ... isn;t there an
option
to override that and just accept the YES option for each named range when
copying a worksheet?
