Custom Message Boxes

[ddrew]

Is it possible to create custom message boxes, so rather than vbYesNo, could I have it say BackFoward, or would it be easier to make a small form!

It can be done using API calls

Complicated though!

A custom form might be easier.

...A custom form might be easier.

No might about it! Use a custom Form!

Life's too short!

Thanks guys, as I suspected, but always worth asking

No such thing as a stupid question!

The custom Form takes about 5 minutes, the API takes about 5 hours...just to figure out!

I've made my little Custom Message Box form and I have set it as a Pop Up. Which I think is the right thing to do. The problem is that I can still access the controls on the form that the MsgBox form is relating to! Is there a way I can disable everything anywhere else until the MsgBox question has been answered?

Figured it out thanks anyway!
