[AccessD] Msgbox with Timer - THANKS!

All,

Thanks for the help with this.  I appreciate your ideas.

I downloaded the sample that A.D. Tejpal had published and used it as a
starting point.

I now have a "MsgBox with a Timer" in a test application.  It works
nicely.

Thanks again,
Brad

Brad,

    My sample db named Form_MsgBoxAutoClick might also be of interest to
you. It is in access 2000 file format and is available at Rogers Access
Library. Link: 
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=45

    This sample db demonstrates automatic closing of message box after a
specified time delay (as desired), if the user fails to respond in the
mean time.


    Two methods are covered, one using windows API and the other based
upon SendKeys.

    Note - Windows API method is the preferred one (SendKeys method is
included mainly for academic interest).    

Best wishes,
A.D. Tejpal

  What is the best way to implement the equivalent of a Msgbox with a
timer?

  Thanks,

  Brad
