Buddy,
I do appreciate your input. I did as you mentioned below on the report I am printing. I also rearranged my statement so it looks like this: -- Open Orders (In House) by Transdate, Control# -- SET MESSAGES OFF SET ERROR MESSAGES OFF PAUSE 3 USING 'Calculating ... Please Stand By ...' + CAPTION ' Pause 3 with Gauge ' + ICON WINDOWS OPTION GAUGE_VISIBLE ON + |GAUGE_COLOR RED + |GAUGE_INTERVAL 10 + |MESSAGE_FONT_NAME VERDANA + |MESSAGE_FONT_SIZE 10 + |MESSAGE_FONT_COLOR WHITE + |THEMENAME Steel Blue PRINT KayParkOpenOrder WHERE SORTONE IN (BL,BR,LR,FP,OT,PB,PC,PT,RP) AND SHIPDATE + IS NULL AND MODEL# NOT CONTAINS 'SPBL' ORDER BY TRANSDATE CONTROL# + OPTION PRINTER + SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF CLS The pause 3 Guage does come up but so also does the automatic pop up that I thought the SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF was supposed to care for. My Feedback messages and error messages are also off. Not sure what to do next to rid myself of the automatic popup. One thing I did not mention is that I am doing this remotely and am printing on an old HP 940c printer at the house. I do not know if that makes a difference.

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.
