Hi:

I am using an Excel object to save data from a VB Application. The application has to be run unattended coz it collects the data from the database and save it to Excel file every midnight. The problem is it gives a message box "A file names xyz.xls already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?"
which i do not want coz it is supposed to be unattended. Following line of code I am using

oSheet.Saveas "xyz.xls"

Is there a way out ??? thanks in advace...
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
This should work.


<pre>
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
oSheet.SaveAs "xyz.xls"
Application.DisplayAlerts = True</pre>
