Thanks for the suggestion Svend, however I do not want to duplicate my
data management program so that I have one version with -browse - and
the other -*browse-. It is important for me to be able to -browse- for
the first application of the code, but it is annoying and slower (as I
have to close the Data Editor each time) if I must -browse- when using
it for the second application.

I have a large Stata data management program that is interspersed with
-browse- so I can get a feel for the data as the program is running. I
now want to execute the program using -quietly- & -do- followed by
code
to capture statistics for another purpose. However with this
application
I no longer wish to -browse- the data as the program runs. Therefore I
was wondering is there a way to suppress -browse- in this instance?

---------------------------------------------------------------

I can think of no other way than modifying the do-file, by replacing
-browse- with the comment -* browse-. In the do-file editor, use
Ctrl-H to search and replace.
