Using API callls with a WIN32 Console App

[Andrew Herrmann]

I've got a progam which I compiled using VC++ 6.0 as a WIN32 console app. The program is used as a console app. When the program is executed, I would like to display a MsgBox on the desktop. I figured I could use the API to do this... However, I'm not quite sure how to go about doing this.

I'd like to keep it simple (as non-invasive as possible).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

#include <windows.h>

// ... somewhere in your code
MessageBox(NULL, "Text", "Caption", MB_OK);

Look up MessageBox in MSDN for more details on the parameters.
