timeout in MessageBox

Dear Group,
is there any way to popup a MessageBox with a default choice (say OK) then
after 1 minute if user do nothing then OK is pressed?

TIA

My first idea is to write your own dialog deriverd from Form, set a
property TimeOut, start a timer in that dialog when it's loaded and
close the dialog when the timer reaches the timeout.
