MessageBox using Dllimport

[raghulvarma]

To display a messagebox i used the below shown code
[DllImport("user 32.dll",Entrypo int="Messagebox ")]
public static extern int MessageBox(int hwnd,string message,string caption,uint uitype)

then when I use the above mentioned messagebox in order to get the exception from the sql statements it shows a error message that overloading is not possible what has to be done to it?

Why wouldn't you just use the regular .NET MessageBox ? It's probably erroring because you already have access to the MessageBox object.

But in ASP applications u doent have default messagebox either u could add reference and get the controls by adding the namespace
using System.windows. forms and get the messagebox from that or either get the messagebox through a script ('Alert') or as i mentioned above.

Waiting for ur reply

AFAIK you can't use a Windows Forms message box in ASP.NET. At all. And if you could, it would pop up on the server, not the client.

You should be looking at various aspnet messagebox options.
