Hi Mac,
cadandcode provided the code at the beginning of your vba code being used to overwrite a workbook without being prompted.
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
However, I learned recently that it's recommended to re-enable the DisplayAlert at the end of your code so it's not off All of the time using:
VBA Code:
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Be sure to test on a TEST file... (y)
