    turning off "files may contain..."

    Hi,

    I would like to be able to turn off the "[filename] may contain features that are not compatible with Text (tab delimited)" prompt that comes up everytime I save a file in a text format in Excel 2000. The text files I am saving all have number extensions (i.e. .220, .221, etc. instead of .txt". Does anybody know if that can be done?

    Thanks.

    I guess you could set up a vba script to save the files without the warning but not otherwise to my knowledge.

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]

    Thanks, Dom, for your reply. Don't know how to do it in VB. If you have any suggestions, that would be great.
