suppress popup message
If I open a specific workbook i get the following message:
"The workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in another workbook. do you want to update this workbook with changes made to the other workbook?" I ALWAYS answer that with "no". The open-routine is done by a macro and would like answer this question by default with "no". how? Application.DisplayAlerts = False does NOT work! Don't ask me why... :( Walt |

Look in the help at workbooks.open command. It has an updatelinks argument.
workbooks.open filename:="C:\My Documents\Myfile.xls", updateLinks:=0 Regards, Tom Ogilvy "walt" wrote in message ...

Click on Tools, Options and select the Edit tab
Simply uncheck the "Ask to update automatic links" box If you want to do it in code then it's Application.AskToUpdateLinks = False "walt" wrote in message ...

Which updates the links without asking - he said he didn't want the link
updated. I ALWAYS answer that with "no". In Excel 2002, there are options under Edit=Links for this I believe, but not earlier verions. Regards, Tom Ogilvy "libby" wrote in message ...
