Simple question...

Hey,

I'm working on a .NET application which was begun on a Windows 2000
platform. I have since migrated to Windows XP and I am having an issue
with message boxes.

When I bring up a message box for the first time it shows the caption
but no text in the body and no text on the button. The code is very
simple and is taken right out of the MSDN.

String* message = S"the body text";
String* caption = S"the caption";
MessageBox::Show(message, caption, buttons);

Anyone else run into this before? I can't find a lick of documentation
on this.

Thanks!

Lonnie

Change:
String* message = S"the body text";
String* caption = S"the caption";


To:

String* message = new String("the body text");
String* caption = new String("the caption");

Dang, that didn't work. I appreciate the advice none-the-less. Any
other ideas?
