I selected 'Remove personal information from file properties on save.'

I am now receiving a message that informs me that the WB has macros, and
personal information may be contained within them that cannot be removed.

How can I prevent this message from being displayed?

Hi John,
Once you have macros in a workbook you have to get rid of the module,
deleting the code is not sufficient. Deleting the code only is sufficient
for sheets and thisworkbook. For mmore information and a macro to
remove see Chip Pearson's

I clicked on the link I gave you from within your reply and it worked fine for me. Suggest you
use the macro because that is much more reliable than trying to do this
manually.
