Warning when opening a .doc file (with Pages) ruins my applescript convert process

I have 2000 plus documents (some Pages, most .doc) that I need to convert to PDF. I've got a working applescript droplet that converts both doc and pages files very nicely... but on some of the .doc files I get this dialog: "Some warnings occured. Would you like to review them now." This of course, ruins my script run.

Is there a way to suppress this warning when Pages opens a .doc file?

Only if there is a script for dialog boxes in your AppleScript which you would have to tailor for the responses.

You can record snippets of mouse activity using the Script Editor and include those in your script if there are no AppleScript library items.
