Edit Links - Startup Prompt - Don't display the alert and update links.

My question is about the update links dialog box. I would like that to disappear without having to go into the
Data tab
-Edit Links
--Startup Prompt
---Then choose "Don't display the alert and don't update automatic links"
or "Don't display the alert and update links"
The reason for this is this is a shared workbook between myself and an outside entity who owns the file and uses it for the link purposes. I am not allowed to change those buttons.

However the dialog box did not come up until after I started to work on Microsoft Access Tutorial files and had made changes in the Trust Center somewhere.

I don't remember what I did.

Was it Message Bar, Privacy Options, Macro Settings, ActiveX settings?
I can't remember.
After I was done then later that day I worked on the shared Excel file that I have worked on for 9 months and suddenly the update links dialog box appears?

Any ideas?
