    Hi,
    Just wondering, I know that there is a way so that when a message box comes up the user can do nothing else till he/she clicks on one of the buttons on the message box.

    I was just wondering if any one knows how to do it, I had some example code once but I am not sure where it has gone, I tried looking for it but could not find it.

    If anyone knows about it and could help me please reply.

    Thanks

    Ok,
    That will bring up a message box which is all good, but the user can just click on another program in the background and continue working as if the message box was not there.

    I remember that They called it a System wide message box or something like that, which means that nothing will be done till a button is pressed on the message box, kinda like the Ctrl + Alt + Del thing, when that box is up nothing will work till the Cancel button or shutdown button or end task button is pressed.

    Thanks for any other help
