Dear All,

to logfile instead.

Thanks & Best regards,

Hi,

The excel.application has a DisplayAlerts property which will
prevent excel from prompting the user.

You can use Ken's suggestion to eliminate the application specific dialog boxes but you will also
want to use Try...Catch to trap and handle the run time errors.
