How to suppress "notice flashes" during automation actions

[GraeagleBill]

In the segment of code pictured below, each time the "DoCmd.OutputTo" statement fires, there's a screen flash denoting the operation of the file save. How can I turn that off?

By "screen flash" you mean the popup print notification? That is a Windows message and preventing may not be simple.

One suggestion in the references you gave:
DoCmd.SetWarnings false
DoCmd.SetWarnings true

Application.DisplayAlerts = false
Application.DisplayAlerts = true

Won't compile, as the compiler tells me the "DisplayAlerts" imethod not found.

Yet, that's what I could find. Guess you will have to keep searching - if you really think it's worth the effort. I don't because surely users are already fully accustomed to seeing this message when printing from anywhere.

Application.DisplayAlerts = false is Excel I believe?, at least they work there.

[GraeagleBill]

I think for the time being I'd consider it "not worth the effort". I'll leave the thread open in case someone comes up with a solution. Moving along.................

I saw another recent thread about suppressing a Windows popup message (different one, can't remember which). Responses pointing to API code.

The Access equivalent for DisplayAlerts is Echo, is it not?

These don't work? What am I missing.

DoCmd.SetWarnings false
Docmd.OutputTo.....
DoCmd.SetWarnings true

SetWarnings has nothing to do with Windows System messages, only Access generated warnings and alerts, usually used to suppress messages associated with DoCmd.RunSQL.
