[AccessD] VB.Net - seeing the messagebox

John,

IOW you wanted to have a message box/form "flying" on top of all the other
windows but not blocking nor your VB.NET application nor other processes?

Shamil,

Nope, I didn't try that.  It doesn't sound like something I want to do
either.

John,

Did you try to use

MsgBoxStyle.SystemModal ? (Be careful it stops all the running processes as
it's written in docs):


Dim msg As String
Dim title As String
Dim style As MsgBoxStyle
Dim response As MsgBoxResult
msg = "Do you want to continue?"   ' Define message.
style = MsgBoxStyle.DefaultButton2 Or _
        MsgBoxStyle.Critical Or _
        MsgBoxStyle.YesNo Or _
        MsgBoxStyle.SystemModal 
title = "MsgBox Demonstration"   ' Define title.
' Display message.
response = MsgBox(msg, style, title)
If response = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then   ' User chose Yes.
   ' Perform some action.
Else
   ' Perform some other action.
End If

When I run my program, the form immediately pops up, I click a button and
the program starts processing files.  I added a messagebox.show to inform me
when each file finishes (I was timing with a stopwatch) but that message box
does not pop up over the top of everything else.  The program has stopped
and the message is up, but behind everything else and I do not see it unless
I click the form icon in the tool bar.  It doesn't even cause the tool bar
icon for the form to change color or flash.

Is there a way to make it do so (somehow notify me)?
