    Advanced MessageBox form

    Anyone know of a source project for inheriting from the current MessageBox
    or a new form that performs most or many of these design requirements:
    '1. handle 2-4 buttons as needed, including default button

    '2. provide image as specified

    '3. allow for form heading

    '4. provide 3 areas of text separated by a blank line (area)

    '5. provide option to fade away in n seconds

    '6. provide footing area to identify form/function where message box was
    generated

    '7. size the form based on the amount of message content within the text
    areas

    '8. handle dialog or non-dialog modes

    '9. topmost

    '10. anything else?

    Thanks,

    Dean Slindee

      Sounds like you've got to build this yourself.

          Dean,

          Can you tell us what your messagebox is different from a form showed with
          showdialog?

          You really make me curiuous about that.

              Some information on implementing a messagebox-like form:
