Hi!
I,m working on a form where users can register their questions and then save
them to a database. After the user has sent the question i would like to
display a messeage box for 3-4 seconds that confirms that the question has
been registered and will be handled. I have tried to do this with the Msgbox
function but i havent been able to make the msgbox to close automatically
after 3-4 seconds. I,ve tried to use timerinvterval but it,s not working, Any
suggestions on how to solve this?

Best regards
Arne
 
Hi Arne,

A message box is modal, so the user needs to click on the OK button to
dismiss it. I suppose you could open a new form, with the Center propery =
Yes, that mimicks the look and feel of a message box. This form could include
a timer event that would automatically close the form after the time
specified (use 3000 milliseconds for 3 seconds, or 4000 milliseconds for 4
seconds).
