Suppressing showing return value on interactive stored proc execution

One of my coworkers is running a stored proc from the SQL Server Management Studio (2005), by right clicking on it and selecting Execute Stored Procedure. The resulting query comes up like this:
Code:
USE [MYDB]
GO

DECLARE	@return_value int

EXEC	@return_value = [dbo].[BobTest1]
		@StartDate = N'20110101',
		@EndDate = N'20110401'

SELECT	'Return Value' = @return_value

GO
She doesn't want to see the return value in the result, and doesn't want to comment out the [tt]SELECT 'Return Value' = @return_value[/tt] statement either. Is there some sort of setting somewhere that will tell the interactive execution process to suppress showing this value? (I kind of doubt it because it's best practice, but I said I'd research it.)

TIA

An unforeseen consequence of the information revolution has been the exponential propagation of human error.
 
As far as I know there is no way to do that.
