Need to disable a confirmation

[Guest]

Is there a way to disable the appearing of this confirmation box on Word 2003
every time I save a file as *.TXT

I use word for the spell check to review TXT files, but get annoyed by that
box, have been looking under the options a way to disable it with no luck at
all.

here's a picture of the box i'm talking about.

I assume the document has already been saved as TXT? If so, you can use a
one-line macro:

Sub SavePlainText()

ActiveDocument.Save

End Sub

If the Save command is issued from VBA, it does not prompt.

If the document has NOT been saved before, or has not been saved as TXT,
then use:

Sub SavePlainText()

ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileFormat:=wdFormatDocument

End Sub

To install a macro, look here:
