Suppress dialog boxes

I have made a batch routine opening and modifying several drawings. However the routine stops if it encounters a drawing containing a shx-file, that AutoCAD is unable to find.
In other drawings containing special objects created by other developers a message box pops up asking for linked files etc.
Is there a way to suppress that kind of initial "disturbance" - enabling a smooth batch process?

Kind regards

You should use FILEDIA system var
if FILEDIA=0 then no box will be prompt
before launch batch just type FILEDIA on command line and set value to 0

 

HI Nathan
Thank's for the reply. I am always a little suspicious about freeware and not knowing PTFB I must ask you this: Do you have any experience about PTFB filling your computer with loads of spyware or is it in your opinion safe?

Kind regards

Hi vinceglorto
Tank's for your reply.

The FILEDIA system variable does not solve the problem. Even though dialog boxes are not shown - batch routines still stop asking for information - now only on the command line!
