You have to use javascript. Your in the web world now.

<script language="VB" runat="server">
'Sub Page_PreRender()

'Form the script that is to be registered at client side.
Dim scriptString as String = "<script language=JavaScriptfunction
DoClick() {"
ScriptString += "var truthBeTold = window.confirm('Click OK to continue.
Click Cancel to stop.');"
ScriptString += "if (truthBeTold)"
ScriptString += "window.alert('Welcome to MVP World!');"
ScriptString += "else window.alert('Bye from MVP World!');}<"
scriptString += "/"
scriptString += "script>"
If(Not IsClientScriptBlockRegistered("clientScript"))
RegisterClientScriptBlock("clientScript", scriptString)
End If
End Sub

>I wanted to make a pop up box to verify a choice to delete a database
record, so I tried this code:
Dim Result As MsgBoxResult
Result = MsgBox("Are You Sure?", MsgBoxStyle.OkCancel, "Sure?")
If Result = MsgBoxResult.Ok Then
Else
End If
The error I got was:
Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in
UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation. Specify the
ServiceNotification or DefaultDesktopOnly style to display a notification
from a service application.
I dont understand this message. How would I make a message box like this
work? I figured doing the code may render some kind of javascript on the
client side but I guess not (I was hopeful though).
