[CONNECT] Suppress Read-Only Warning Dialog

Jon Summers
Online

I want to collect information from a number of files.  I don't want to modify those files.  If a file is read-only (e.g. Windows file protection) then I see a modal dialog like this...

Read Only

With a batch operation in progress, that dialog requires human intervention, which hinders the automatic process.  Is there a way to suppress that dialog?

    I have used workaround to start batch process with key-in: DMSG ACTION OKAY
    But it doesn't supress the window just clicks OK button. Knowing that Bentley indexing/batch tools have same issue with modal dialogs it seems there is no option to suppress them.

    Known dialogs which interrupt batch process:

    • File is read-only
    • History is enabled and last user has not commited changes
    • Low display color depth
    • File corruption
    • incompatible DWG version
    • Hyper threading enabled(XM Edition)
    • WorkSet Mismatch Alert Dialog(CONNECT)
