Default How to auto acknowledge a prompt box, Macro

Hi,

I have a Excel sheet that uses Get External Data to draw charts. I have the
Data set up to refresh every 5 min., and likewise be reflected in my
continuous line charts.

I need to access the "up to date" data from a couple different locations, so
my file is on a common drive on our network. In order for the file to be up
to date when I open a new instance of it from another PC, I have the base PC
perform an Auto save every 10 minutes.

Occasionally, the auto save and the refresh try to execute at the same time,
and I get a prompt box telling me that "This command will stop
refresh/update scan, OK?" (or something very similar)... Anyway, if I am not
at my PC when that happens, the refresh (nor the save) will occur until
either "OK", or "Cancel" is clicked. How can I write a macro that will
automatically choose "OK"?

Thanks,

John
