Steve, Try this; Set v vmsg=(.var1&.var2&.var3) Pause 2 using .vmsg (etc., with your settings) If you want to display a message on only 1 of the 3 variables you would have to decide which variable has preference such as: If var1 is not null and var2 is null and var3 is null the set v vmsg=.var1 pause 2 using .vmsg, etc. endi ..and so on. Hope that helps. Bill Eyring
