Disable Message Workbook Contains Links

[MikeDBMan]

When I run a VBA sub to load several files the program often is interrupted with this nag:
"This Workbook contains links to other data sources...."
I can "Update", "Don't Update" or "Help".

I wish to just have the code ignore the message. Other than removing the links, which I cannot always seem to do, I have tried:

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
With Application
    .Calculation = xlManual
    .MaxChange = 0.001
End With

But nothing seems to work. Suggestions?

You can open the workbook(s) with the argument UpdateLinks set to False.... that is, if you are opening the workbooks using VBA.

How is this handled if the workbook is opened without VBA?
