MsgBox Function

MsgBox Function

You can use the MsgBox function in Microsoft Access to create a formatted error message similar to built-in error messages displayed by Microsoft Access.

Note   In Acc9TBD, this function does not permit you to separate a string into sections with the at sign (@).

The following example displays a formatted dialog box with a sectioned string.

MsgBox "Wrong button!" & chr(13) _
    & "This button doesn't work." & chr(13) –
    & "Try another.", vbOKOnly + vbExclamation

Note   To display a message box without an icon in Microsoft Access, simply omit any constant that would denote an icon, or supply a value of zero for the buttons argument, as in the following example.

MsgBox "No icons included.", 0
