Silent MessageBox.Show

Ger Cannoll — Wed, 15 Aug 2012 16:19:21 GMT

Everytime I use a messageBox.Show(), the bell sounds. Most of the time, I dont want this to happen. Most searches I've done on this suggest either turning off the bell at the Control Panel(Dont really want to do this) or use a VB MessageBox where I need to start loding VB sfuff (Dont really want to do this either)

Anybody know of a way of displaying a MessageBox without the sound ?

Regards,

Gerard

Gerard:

Also, use the StrataFrame message box window. That is why it is there. Is supports HTML, rich-text, and plain text. It is far more capable than the standard Windows messagebox and gives you more control as well. This also supports full localization if you have that need. You can have it pull messages from the localization entries.

Hi Ger.

Have a look at the Help File under "Using the MessageForm Class". There are many options for messaging.
