Hi all

Ive got a bit of a strange one. I have a macro which opens various files, and saves them. Occasionally on opening or saving, the macro seems to pause where the opening/downloading or saving dialog box appears (the one which shows progress on downloading/saving). The only way to get it to continue is by clicking cancel on the dialog.

The problem is more frequent when opening/saving to/from a network folder - though not all the time. Is there anything that can be done to avoid this error?

Thanks

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
Before the opening - application.displayalerts = false
After closing - application.displayalerts = true
