Description

The SET DIALOG OFF command disables all dialog and alert boxes. Dialog boxes display when the user presses the [ABANDON] key. Alert boxes display when an error occurs. Error messages display in the message line rather than in a pop-up alert box when SET DIALOG is OFF. SET DIALOG OFF is particularly useful in foreign language applications. The default for SET DIALOG is ON.
