Msgbox

[ZappingZap]

Do any of you have cool things that you could do with an MSGbox. If you don't know haw to do one, just ask for help.

What are you talking about, what language?

[urbn]

What the hell are you talking about?

[VigilanteNighthawk]

I don't know, put Msg in it?

It's the visual basic name for the windows api function MessageBoxW. It can take up to three resolution buttons depending on the chosen preset, an icon, a text message, a window title and an optional help button. That's it, it's a boring convenience function so that you don't need to write a full window class and message loop for a stupid Y/N question. It's less fun than graffiti.

[ZappingZap]

Okay. You have to open up notepad and then type this in:
x =msgbox("Text", 20,"Title")
and then save it as "Text.vbs"
When you open it, a box will show up.
There are other numbers you can put in except 20.
0-6 normal
16-20 Red X
46-50 Yello !
extra
32
64
4096
Buttons
0: OK
1: OK and Cancel
2: Abort, Retry, Ignore
3: Yes, No, Cancel
4: Yes and No
5: Retry and Cancel

That's totally amazingly pointless... There is no application to what you are doing...

(I'm not saying that this does not have an application, simply what he is doing).

[drakelord-nK]

MessageBox(NULL, L"Hey there.", L"I like fried chicken!", 0);

[Wonderful]

MessageBox.Show("OP is a skiddy");

I can take user input in the form of button presses using a message box because I'm so cool ;-)

Good riddance, every 12 year old kid who reads a tutorial on VB thinks he can go make viruses.

[wobbo]

but to make a fun auto-spawn-pop-up-window copy the following lines

msgbox"this is fun"
msgbox"this is fun"
msgbox"this is fun"
msgbox"this is fun"
msgbox"this is fun"

and if ya want an inputbox or something, copy the following line

msgbox"let's go"
fun=inputbox("do you think this is fun?")
If fun = "yes" Then
WScript.Echo"i think it's fun too"
End if
If fun = "no" Then
WScript.Echo"well, i think it's fun."

End if

then save it as "name".vbs

enjoy

Correction; your computer crashed while trying to make malicious scripts in VBS. It's hard to give sympathy in this situation.

[ZappingZap]

That's an awesome one.

Not really!

This reminds me of that "post your cool batch scripts" thread from a wee while back, which was equally pointless and not interesting in the slightest :P

VBS is so 1996.

My reaction to this topic.

So you're telling is that you need help restoring your desktop after you tried to destroy your own computer?

[bgraybr]

It amused me for about ten seconds. Completely useless code though... why would you make a thread about it in programming?
