How to you "auto-click" the update dialog in Excel sheets?
When I access Excel sheet from Matlab, always a little window pops up,
"update the links", how do I automatically make it "yes"?

Assuming you use COM functionality to open/update/close your XLS (instead of using the built-in xlswrite function), open your XLS file with the optional second parameter (=UpdateLinks) as false. FYI, the full list of open() parameters is:

Workbooks.Open(FileName, UpdateLinks, ReadOnly, Format, Password, WriteResPassword, IgnoreReadOnlyRecommended, Origin, Delimiter, Editable, Notify, Converter, AddToMru, Local, CorruptLoad)
