You can control this behaviour from the menu  

in xl 2007
Data ... Edit Links
startup prompt
then pick
1) alert to give choice
2) no alert no update
3) no alert update

Cheers

Thanks guys, i am willing to use  xlUpdateLinksNever (im 2003) however, this is going to be on open. After 2mins if the user presses the button i have to update the links, will that be affected by the fact that "xlUpdateLinksNever" is in workbook open?

Thanks
