Was wondering how I could center the text in a MsgBox that I am putting in my
code.

Thanks

As far as I know, there is no way to do this using a MsgBox. However, all
you have to do is create your own custom Message box form and then you can
control anything and everything you would like to.

Had a feeling that was going to be the answer. I am sure that is also easier
to do in 2007 than in previous versions. Unfortunately, client is on 2003 and
am using their program to develop.

Thank you for the prompt reply!!

It's the same MsgBox in Access 2007 as in previous versions: it actually is
a Windows API.

Check the free Custom MsgBox Creator Arvin Meyer has at

It's not a bit different. Just don't call it a message box, but rather call it
a Popup Form, and it will fall into place.

Just create a small unbound form with a textbox (centered) and open it with
DoCmd.OpenForm rather than MsgBox. You may want to put an "ok" button on the
form to close it.
