Gerry,
Try this:
MsgBox("Testing messagebox", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Ok it works now")

Gerry,

That messagebox should show up in the way you made it. Therefore the problem
should be something else.

Maybe in future, did you know that there is a VBNet language related
questions newsgroup.
Microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Thanks to Johns post on 9\10\2004.

The problem is Mcafee 8.0 with "Buffer Overflow Protection" enabled.
Once I disabled this, no more problem with this issue.

Would this be a bug in Mcafee?


thanks
Gerry
