/*
I am trying to use message box instead of Console::WriteLine() to upgrad my
code from just using the console to using GUI.
In the buttom 2 lines, #1 works, but I have hard time to make # 2 works. Can
anybody give a hand here to make the infomation to be shown on the message
box instead of being shown on the console.
I am using visual C++ .NET 2003
Thanks
