      Msgbox "Msgbox"

      or

      Messagebox.Show "Messagebox.Sho w"

        I would use "(" and ")".

              There has been much already said about whether to use old VB 6.0 functions
              like MsgBox() or the new .NET classes like MessageBox.Show .

              My opinion is to stay away from the older VB 6.0 ways and adopt the newer
              (OO) .NET ways. Yes, either will work, but MsgBox() is just going to put in
              a call to the shared show method of the MessageBox class, so why not skip an
              extra step and go straight into the MessageBox class. There are several
              other situations like this in VB.NET.

              For example, many of the "old" string functions are now methods of the
              string class and many "old" numeric functions are now methods of the number
              type classes. The same is also true for "old" date/time functions now being
              methods of the date/time classes.

                  Somebody told me that some people are out there who don't use an IDE to
                  develop their applications.

                    I know. But Msgbox is shorter.

                        You want a nice IDE you do. Your "is" would have been nicely
                        converted to its correct form "Is" <g>
