how do I supress the warning when deleting a sheet with a macro? I am using
the command following command to delete the sheet.

Sheets("Sheet1").Delete

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets("Sheet1").Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

Always set back to true as the property will stay false until reset.

On a line above the delete sheet statement put the following application
command:

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Alerts in Excel are automatically reactivated when the macro is finished
running so there's no need to end you macro with an
"Application.DisplayAlerts = True" statement.

Do you really need "Sheet1" hard-coded?

Maybe like this in case you want to delete more than one sheet.

Sub SheetDelete()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Kevin, you are wrong on this one. It stays False until you turn it back to
True, even if your macro stops.
