Hi Jeff,

Thank you for replying and more information for your scenario!

This alert is a warning to let the customer know whether to replace the
data in the extended area for pivotTable. This will remind the customer
whether to replace the data. So far as I know on this issue, I don't think
you can canceal it.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you for using Microsoft NewsGroup!
