Excel - Boost Your Macro Efficiency: Suppress Alerts in Excel with VBA - Episode 1211.225

Описание: Microsoft Excel Tutorial: Boost Your Macro Efficiency: Suppress Alerts in Excel with VBA.

Welcome back to the MrExcel netcast! In this episode, we're diving into Chapter 25 of our VBA Macros book and discussing how to suppress alerts in Excel. As we all know, there are many instances where Excel will prompt us with a warning before completing an action. While this can be helpful when working in the Excel interface, it can become a hindrance when running a macro with multiple steps.

For example, when deleting a worksheet, Excel will ask us if we're sure we want to permanently delete the data. This is great when manually working in Excel, but when running a macro with 40 steps, it can become tedious to constantly confirm each action. Plus, the whole point of a macro is to make our lives easier, not add extra steps and interruptions.

To prevent these alerts from popping up while running a macro, we can use the code "application.displayalerts = False". This will suppress any alerts from showing up during the macro. However, it's important to remember to change this back to "True" after the line of code where we're expecting an alert. This way, if there are any unexpected alerts later on, they will still pop up.

This is a great trick to use when creating macros with multiple steps. It saves time and eliminates the need for constant confirmation. Thank you for tuning in to this episode of the MrExcel netcast.
