How to prevent the "Switch To" or "Application Busy" error messages using OLE
Automation
This error message usually occurs because the OLE activated application has an
open dialog box and is expecting user input. This error message can be
eliminated by using the property OLERequestPendingTimeout. This property
specifies the amount of time after an Automation request is made before a busy
message is displayed. The default is five seconds and is specified in
milliseconds. By setting the timeout to 0, Microsoft Visual FoxPro will wait
indefinitely for the other application. The busy message will not be displayed
whether the Automation request is pending or if a mouse or keyboard event
occurs.
Create a program and enter the following code.
oWord=CREATEOBJECT("Word.Application")
APPLICATION.OLERequestPendingTimeout = 0 && 0 means no busy error message
WITH oword && Change to 100 to see busy
&& message
.Documents.ADD
.Dialogs(88).SHOW && Open the Word Print dialog
.APPLICATION.QUIT(0) && Quit and don't save changes
ENDWITH
