Hi

I recently coded a spreadsheet which creates subsets of
data which are then saved separately. After cutting the
data I use the statement below to save the data:

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="D:\msoffice\access\work\"
& thisfilename & ".xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="",
WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close

However, the problem I have is that excel keeps stopping
at this command to get confirmation that it's okay to
overwrite an existing file with the same name with the new
one.

is there anything I can put in the code that effectively
stops excel checking to see if the filename already exists?

Thanks in advance for any postings.
