I have a from with a comman button that I have programmed to print "X"
number of copies of a report. It all runs fast, but is there a way to keep
the "Now Printing" window from popping up. Get's annoying if you are
printing 100 copies.

Thanks,
Terry
 
That's an internal Access dialog, so there is not really a way to hide it.

You can suppress it in the Timer event of a form, as explained in this
article:
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0037.htm

In general, though, running a timer event all the time can have worse side
effects that the problem it is meant to cure.
 
Terry,
Check your printer's properties, with some brands of printers there is
an option for displaying or suppressing the printer status.

Regards,
Lou
