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 |

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. -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP Access tips: www.datagnostics.com/tips.html (please reply to the newsgroup) |

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. -Tom. Microsoft Access MVP "Tom van Stiphout" wrote in message .. .
