Turn Off Warnings in Microsoft Access

How to Turn Off Warning Messages for Action Queries. Do you have command buttons that run action queries (append, delete, update, make table)? If so you know that Access gives you warning messages that can sometimes be annoying. In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I'll show you how to turn those off.

Jim asks, "I’m running an Update Query from a button on a form, and every time I do I get this annoying warning message that says I’m about to update X rows. Is there any way to turn this off?"

I'll show you how to run an SQL statement in VBA code without making a query, how to turn the warnings OFF and ON whenever you want in VBA, how to make a MsgBox prompt "are you sure" whenever you want to, add a Shipped Date to your Order Table, and only update the ship date for orders who haven't shipped yet.
