Default Display Alerts

Hi all

I've heard that putting 'Application.DisplayAlerts = False' stops the
ActiveX warning pop-up when the workbook is opened, however when I run my
code it won't actually change the alerts to false, what could be wrong here?

Thanks in Advance

Jason

Default Display Alerts

The Display alerts is designed to stop the kind of alerts you get when, for
example, you try to save a file with a name of an existing file, or when you
delete a worksheet - this is so that code can run "automatically" without
stopping for user input.
The ActiveX warning is at application level - ie the O/S raises it rather
than Excel itself. If you Google for it, you'll see that you can set a
Registry item that stops the warning.
