   System.string bsCaption
)
C++/CLI

&   System.String^ bsMsg,
&   EdmMBoxType eType,
&   System.String^ bsCaption
)

Parameters

lParentWnd
Parent window handle
bsMsg
Message to display in the message box
eType
Optional style of the message box as defined in EdmMBoxType
bsCaption
Optional string to display for the message box caption

Return Value

Button clicked as defined in EdmMBoxResult

Example

Remarks

The only advantage of this method over the standard Visual Basic MsgBox function is that, with this method, you can specify a parent window handle to ensure that the message box stays on top of whatever parent window you have. For add-ins the parent window is usually the Windows Explorer window.

You do not need to call IEdmVault5::Login or IEdmVault5::LoginAuto before calling this method.

Return codes: 

  • S_OK: The method successfully executed.
  • S_FALSE: The user pressed Cancel.
