Dave, yes that stops the annoying warning dialog, but I DO want the
contents to remain in the Clipboard, I just want Excel to stop worrying and
completely ignore what is or isn't in the Clipboard when I exit.

Thanks,

If you hit the Escape key before you close excel, do you get the warning.

Greetings all,

Silly little thing that bugs me. I'd like to turn off the prompt I
receive
whenever I exit Excel (2003). If I have previously used the Windows
Clipboard to copy ANYTHING, be it the contents of one cell or a whole
spreadsheet, Excel just has to ask me whether or not I want to keep a
"large" amount of data in the Clipboard for use with other applications.
YES
YES YES, just stop asking me every time I exit Excel!

Thanks for your help. Happy Holidays!

Larry
