Alway on top problem - Visual Basic .NET

Just Me

Sometime I have a form that is set to be TopMost but then I'll popup an
error message or "Do you really..." message that will be hidden behind it.

Is there a way to make the messagebox or other dialog boxes be on top of
everything?

Thanks

For other forms: Set their 'TopMost' property to 'True' too.

sorry, I wasn't clear.

What is hidden is usually a message box, maybe a file dialog, or something
like that.
I could make my own messagebox but the other dialogs are more difficult.

I can't inherit these things, can I?
