Prevent updating links on workbook open in VBA

When opening workbooks with VBA in Excel 2007 that contain links to other workbooks, I want to eliminate the message box requesting the selection of "Continue" or "Edit Links" and have it default to "Continue". I have tried using the parameter "UpdateLinks:=2" as specified in the VBA Developer Reference, but still receive the message box. Any suggestions?

if you use the updatelinks:=2 that should get rid of the message box? What code are you using? Note, generally one way to get rid of messageboxes is to set displayalerts equal to false which will select the default response to all user prompts. That would be one option in this case but remember to set it back to true afterwards, for example:

Thanks for the fast response! Here's the code I'm using:

Workbooks.Open Filename:= HistFileName, UpdateLinks:=2

where HistFileName is a full-qualified file name.
