View Full Version : Solved: How to suppress replacing cells when using PasteSpecial?

I perform the following in a Do loop:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False

Each time the loop comes to this statement, execution of the subroutine pauses and a window with Yes/No buttons pops up. The question in the window is "Do you want to replace the contents of the destination cells?"

My answer is always yes, but I want this macro to execute unattended. I have not found a setting yet that will suppress this pause and the question. I ask for assistance from the VBA world. You are great.

Put

Application DisplayAlerts = False

before the loop, and

Application DisplayAlerts = True

after it

When I put a period between "Application" and "DisplayAlerts", your solution works.

Thanks so much.

Your statements did not show the period between "Application" and "DisplayAlerts"--at least not on my screen.

No I can see that, I meant I wonder how I managed to get that wrong, I know it should be dot not space :(.
