hiding compile output

[rickesilaw]

We have a program where we build code in a class while running a form and then compile the code. How can we stop the output from the compile from displaying over the form?

SET TALK OFF

SET CONSOLE OFF

One of the two should do it.

That didn;t work - put set talk off and set console before the compile statement - still get "garbage".

Sounds like a setting is stuck, try deleting your FoxUser.dbf table, and see if it make a difference.

I had a similar problem and SET ECHO OFF did take care of it.

I'm not sure with all these suggestions you have solve your problem, but here is something else you can try, divert the output to an off-screen window:

DEFINE WINDOW dummy FROM 0,0 TO 1,1
MOVE WINDOW dummy TO -1,-1
SET TALK WINDOW dummy
SET TALK ON
&& Compile your code here
SET TALK OFF
RELEASE WINDOW dummy
