Append query, block questions

[gheyman]

When my Append quesry is ran the user gets the Pop questions (You are about to run.....) is there a way to stop this and just append the data. It confuses my users and out of precuation, they dont want to click anything and they come running to ask what to do. I want it to just go ahead and Append.

PS my query is run from the event button
OpenQuery
Query Name qryAppendNewQuoteNumbers


Its not done in VB.

if it's not done in VB how is it done? Using macros? Either way you want to "set warnings off"

I wouldn't use macros and turn off warnings, but maybe that's because I'm out of touch with macros and how they might have improved on design. Big problem with them has always been (AFAIK) that if they error out, they stop. Now warnings are left turned off, which could be bad. My 2nd choice would be turning them off in code, and ensuring I have an error trap that ensures they're turned back on should an error occur. If not done properly and an error occurs, they can still be left off. First choice would be the .Execute method of the CurrentDb object with the dbFailOnError parameter. No prompt unless the query/sql fails.

CurrentDb.Execute mySqlString, dbFailOnError
