Manipulating Excel files from Access 2003 VB

An Excel Template file is getting filled with data in an Access 2003 VB module.
The Excel Template file contains references to an xla file, which is not installed on the computers where the Excel Template files are getting filled with data.
Every time a line is getting added to the Excel Template file a prompt appears – Update Values: ZZZ.xla.
How to turn it off???
