MsgBox Replacement

Description:
This project supplies a new MsgBox, made out of a form. You might ask me WHY do you should ever bother to use this project instead of the standard MessageBox provided by the system. Well, if you'll create a project that has a Winsock control in it, then you'll probably be in trouble with the standard MessageBox as it freezes the program and stops all communications between a server and a client program through Winsock. Another thing to point out is the fact that with this project you have full access to source code, so you can make new additions and further personalize it.

Features:

  • Is not execution blocking, unlike the standard MessageBox, meaning that other code can run in response to events.
  • Has a checkbox, which is missing from the original one.
  • The source code is available so you can make any additions to it and customize it.
ToDo:
  • Play the standard sound when MyMsgBox is displayed.
  • Handle in a transparent way the checkbox (for standard messages, with all the code needed inside the msgbox form code).
  • Add support for external icons.
  • Customize buttons text depending on international settings (right now all buttons default to english).
