Hi
Is it possible to set a message box with customs button texts?

When a button called Close is pressed, I want the user to be able to select
to close just the Database or the Database and Application?

Many thanks

No.
But you can create your own form that mimicks a MsgBox.
Or if you're lucky find some code online of someone who already did
that and posted the code.

Well, actually, yes. You can do it with some fancy API code that was posted
by Randy Birch on VBNet. I've tested it and it works, but (a) it's somewhat
limited, and (b) it's probably more trouble than it's worth, when you can
use your own custom dialog form for the purpose -- as you posted, Tom.

Hi Dirk,
You are quite correct. I typically tell people "... unless you want to
go to extremes", because indeed Windows is a very open operating
system and if you know it well there is little you can't do. Mere
mortals typically need to stay with built-in features of the
development tools they are using.
