How to? Stop built in "Importing . . ." msgbox from displaying.

I have a form with an unbound picture box.
The picture's source is set at runtime to the desired linked picture using
the form's on current event.

Access seems to find it necessary to display a msgbox with "Importing
filename" and a progress bar as it loads the new picture.

The net result as a user clicks through the database is an annoying flash of
the msgbox.

Can the msgbox be disabled?

I think this is what you're looking for:

I've used the "change registry setting" approach, but not the "catch and
close the dialog window" method.
