hi friend, Here is the class for creating the custom message box... modify the class little bit.. to get the exact message box you want... using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace CustomMessageBox { public partial class FMessageBox : Form { public FMessageBox() { InitializeComponent();

Close(); } void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ButtonClicked = EButtonClicked.button2; Close(); } void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ButtonClicked = EButtonClicked.button1; Close(); } public enum EButtonClicked { button1, button2, button3, notSet } public EButtonClicked ButtonClicked = EButtonClicked.notSet; public static EMessageReturn Show(string aCaption, string aMessage, EMessageButtons eMessageButtons) { FMessageBox fMessageBox = new FMessageBox();
