Is there a code which you can enter before a series of queries are run which will stop the results of each action flashing up on the screen?

Ideally I would like the screen to display just a rotating hour glass or similar whilst the code is being run.

Perhaps the Application.Echo method ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks guys, the Application.Echo method worked fine. I didn't need the hourglass as the whole code ran so much quicker.
