MessageBox c++

Hello guys,

Just to note off, i've spent the last 3 years working in Visual Basics, so I have these really bad habbits in c++ right now, heh, however I'm working on it.


Right I have the real down basic question, when someone clicks on a button I want a messagebox to appear on the screen.

My current code has this



Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.         }
  2. #pragma endregion
  3.     private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
  4.  
  5.  
  6.  
  7.              }
  8.     };
  9. }
  10.  
  11.  
Now I spent a little time trying to find the simple code to add a box when the user clicks on the button1, I found this, which I believe is the code?

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. MessageBox(NULL,"CTRL+BREAK received!","CEvent",MB_OK);
  2.  
However it didnt work when I place it underneath the ' e){ '

could someone please point me in the correct direction.

Thanks!

If you use Microsoft Visual C++ try to delete the "NULL," in your MessageBox. Eg.: MessageBox("AKU BISA TOH!!!!!","INFORMATIONNNNIS",MB_OK);
