No, I haven't tried any of those things yet... but I will... what I can't understand is what did I change to cause this? The message never appeared before and I've been using SET TALK ON to display query progress for quite some time.

Do you see this message as well? or are you using the STATUS BAR ON / OFF approach yourself?

Thanks
