[AccessD] Modern/Metro style message box and input box for Microsoft Access 2013

Hi all

If you work with Access 2013 on Windows 8+ using full-size forms, you probably have been disturbed by the lousy native Message Box.
If so, here is a solution which matches much better the design:

I must admit it took a bit more than I had expected, even though the goal was to create nothing more than an exact match of the functionality of MsgBox without any "enhanced" features or other smart attempts *). It should be, simply, a direct drop-in to replace MsgBox in existing code via a simple find/replace without any recoding afterwards.

When done, I found that I could just as well create a similar InputBox. The native is so wimpy, that you are reluctant to use it, even though it can be quite handy.

*) Of course, it didn't hold. It was so easy to add a timeout feature, so I couldn't resist. It is controlled by the last, optional parameter so it won't break any existing code.
