Moving MsgBox around?

Ron
Hi

Is there some way to reposition the built-in Msgbox in Access2000 to a
position that's more appropriate for my needs? It always appears
automatically in the center of my screen, yet my program runs in one corner
of the screen (big screen, high resolution) and I'd rather have it appear
over my program's screen space.

TIA

The MsgBox is a Windows control that isn't very flexible. Create your own
Form to use as a (pseudo-) Message Box and you can do what you want with it.

P.S. Gosh! I remember giving a similar answer when I first started answering
Access questions, maybe in the old FidoNet hobbyist network's Access echo.
