I'm creating a new application for our repair department to send out quote letters to our customers rather than make the 1000 phone calls it takes to make contact with them. I want the clerk to have two options "Print NOW" which is done and works fine, or "Batch Print".

I set the status when the form opens to "NEW" then when she's ready and selects "Batch Print" I set the status code to "Print" (yeah, I know very creative). Later when she wants to print the full batch job I want to set the Status code to "PRINTED".

I created a simple Update query and I launch it after the batch print has run. The problem is that it comes up and asks the clerk "You're about to update X records, Once you click yes...." How do I stop this from coming up? Any suggestions?

 
Have a look at the SetWarnings method.

Hope This Helps, PH.
