This is a vba module that generates emails.

I added only 3 lines.
#
SysCmd acSysCmdInitMeter, "Currently Emailing ", totNumRecs
SysCmd acSysCmdUpdateMeter, "Currently Emailing ", intNumRecs
SysCmd acSysCmdRemoveMeter
#

I am getting a Debug message on the SysCmd acSysCmdUpdateMeter-line stating invalid number of arguments.
I did not initial acSysCmdInitMeter to a number.
I did initial totNumRecs and intNumRecs.


Thx for any help.

UpdateMeter only take the amount you're updating it by, not the status message.

just try

SysCmd acSysCmdUpdateMeter, intNumRecs
 
Got it!
The first one has the extra literal.
The next two do not.
And then there is not a pop-up box. It make just a little meter thingie on the bottom of the screen.
Thanks for all the help.

One item to note. Within the Tools Startup - the check box for the status must be checked on this meter does not show on the bottom of the screen.
