Are you saying I should add the following to the print statement? SET MESSAGES OFF SET FEEDBACK OFF OPTION SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF Then at the end of the printing I would turn them all back on?

Add the OPTION SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF to your print statement. You may also want to check and make sure Feedback is off Buddy From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 7:02 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Print many reports Buddy, Thanks for the input. I applied your suggestion and the gauge window does come up. However another screen also comes up (it must be a default setting) that states "accessing data" and also the number of pages it is creating. It blocks the gauge window. Is there a way to suppress this default window?

It is working but I want advice if there is a better way to do this than what I have below. I use the pause 3 with a Guage option but that option does not seem to work. Just two of the reports are shown below.
