Is it possible to have a MsgBox that is for information only & doesn’t prompt
with a click “OK�. One that says “Please wait while report is being
created†& goes away after the report has run.

This MsgBox can be within a macro or form.
 
Kevin,

As far as I know, this can't be done with a MsgBox function or action.
However, you can make a simple unbound form, with your "message" to the
user on a Label control, and open it with an OpenForm action in your
macro. Take off all the "trimmings", e.g. navigation buttons, record
selector, close button, etc. Probably set its Modal property to Yes,
and possibly Popup property too. Use its own Timer event to close it,
or else a Close action at the end of your macro/procedure.
 
Using form as a MsgBox work great.

Also, I recieved an error when posting the first message, the system said it
wasn't recieved. That's why there are 2 postings.

That doesn't explain why they're in different newsgroups!
