Before closing the file, execute the following statement:

Application.CutCopyMode = False

If the problem still continues, which it may, copy a single cell. This will
make the contents of the clipboard very small and thus eliminate the
message.

I have macro that copies some data from a workbook and then tries to close
it. I want it to run without stopping, but I get the message that there
is a
large amount of data in the clipboard - and I need to click "OK". Is
there a
way to suppress that message so the macro will complete? Thanks.
