I have a spreadsheet that makes use of a User Form. On the User Form there is a Save button. It saves one of the sheets as a new workbook.

When I go into the destination folder and manually double click on the saved file, it produces the "This workbook contains links to other data sources" message.

I think I want to use this code to disable the message (but I could be wrong):
Code:
Workbooks.Open.UpdateLinks = xlUpdateLinksNever

The question is, how do I include this code in the saved workbook automatically (when the user clicks the save button)??
I don't want to have to manually open the saved workbook and put the code in. I want to do it automatically.
Where would I put this code (or other code that will do the same thing)?
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
That won't work since the message should occur before your code runs - it's a per machine setting not per workbook.
