Craig,

Yes! As I learned, from doing a longer search that yielded the LAST
time you came up with this correct answer:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.idl-pvwave/browse_t hread/thread/dad37fe63c582ea0/e1e6afcde66b9503?hl=en&lnk =gst&q=runtime+silent+bowman#e1e6afcde66b9503

For everyone's reference, the key here is that the RUNTIME invocation
of IDL "-rt" changes the behavior of MESSAGE and calls DIALOG_MESSAGE
instead. This behavior is not anywhere in the IDL documentation, as
far as I can tell.

Thanks for your help, both then and now!
