Questions tagged [msgbox]

The MsgBox function is used in Visual Basic to display a dialog box to the user, wait for a button to be clicked and return the result to the caller. Use this question for using MsgBox specifically; for the .NET MessageBox class, use the "messagebox" tag instead.

Summary

The MsgBox function is exclusive to the Visual Basic programming language. It is commonly used in , or Visual Basic for Applications (), but can also be used in Visual Basic .NET for backwards compatibility. (However, in , it is recommended to use the MessageBox class from the .NET Framework instead.)

Function signature

As listed on MSDN:

Public Function MsgBox( _
   ByVal Prompt As Object, _
   Optional ByVal Buttons As MsgBoxStyle = MsgBoxStyle.OKOnly, _
   Optional ByVal Title As Object = Nothing _
) As MsgBoxResult
  • Prompt is used to set the text you want to display in the dialog box.
  • Buttons is used to set which buttons are displayed in the dialog box. If omitted, only the OK button is shown by default.
  • Title is used to set the title text for the dialog box. If omitted, the application name is displayed by default.

The return value is a numeric value indicating what action the user took in response to the dialog (i.e., which presented button was clicked).
