    How to get system string resources?

    Specifically, I would like to know the exact strings that are displayed on
    "Yes/No/Cancel" buttons of a Message Box.
    Does .Net Framework allow this?

    DoB,

    No, it doesn't. The only way I can think of is to hook the windows
    message box. This article will show you how to do it in managed code.

    You can probably hook into the messagebox and then use the FindWindow
    API function to find the appropriate windows, and then call SendMessage with
    a WM_GETTEXT message to get the text of the buttons.
