>>>>>I have a menu option that lets the user toggle the status bar on or off. When it is off and a form is loaded with DO FORM, messages about the tables in the data environment of the form start displaying on the screen as if TALK was set ON. TALK if off in my application. If I set the status bar on, this doen't happen. How can I suppress the text with the status bar off?

>From my experience the views and tables get opened before the form load event meaning if you don't set deleted on, you will probably get deleted records in your view. (of course you could put deleted() as a condition in your where clause, but then you got to duplicate that for every join... messy) :)
