msgbox function

I suspect that my 2 yr old has been messing around again...

simple

say I call the msgbox function from a button click event

thus
#
msgbox ("hi")
the msgbox appears but without the text "hi"...

in other words completely blank.

I am dumbfounded!

thanks/regards

Let me guess, McAfee Anti-Virus v8.whatever, correct?
Go to the McAfee web site and download the patch specifically released to
correct this problem. Or, IIRC, you can just disable buffer overflow
protection in what you're running now. I'm not sure of the latter, as my
permanent solution was to find better behaved anti-virus software.
