And Joe, you too are sneaky and brilliant. I guess you and John came up
with the idea almost at the same time.

Could it not be replaced by entering a blank line at the appropriate
record number in one of the designer message files ?

If I understand the question, Robert wanted to suppress that specific
message. There's no way to suppress a specific warning message unless
you actually correct the cause of the warning.

As an alternative, you could output the listing to a file and analyze
that file in a text editor that allowed you to look for warnings not
matching that one.

The command is ancient in Powerhouse, goes all the way back as far as I
know:

SET NOWARNINGS

(Never tried the short version of "SET NOW" but I guess that would work
too.  It seemed too ambiguous.)
