That would be sweet. I can think of another use for a "set console". I know that in the old days for programs that took a real long time to run, in addition to putting pause messages up I would "set messages on" in the back ground so that they could see the updates and inserts running by. If we could set a console on, set messages on, and have the program output to a console window that would be terrific. Sort of like an "echo on" to the screen!
