Default Check engine light

For the past few days my check engine light has been on. This morning I pulled the codes and surprise, no codes!!!! This has happened before one time, I did not tighten the gas cap completely. Now however I have checked this several times. How can I clear the check engine light to try to capture any codes that may be causing the problem?? Does clearing codes in DIC clear check engine light? What kind of damage can I possibly be doing by driving with check engine light still on? This is one of those little things that just drives a person insane.
Thanks for any help

You have to clear each code as you read it, if it's recurring-it will NOT go away till the problem is resolved.
