Display MsgBox without buttons.

[bakerm]

Hello all,

I need to display a message to the user without any available interaction.

I tried using the msgbox and .popup methods but both will display with buttons that the user can click, I nedd to display the message on a form minus buttons. I need to have the message display for 15 seconds.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!!

Have you tried a little modal form with only one TextBox and a Timer event procedure ?

No I have not. I will try that now.

Thanks for your suggestion!

OOps, sorry, disregard my previous post as I didn't realize I was in the VBScript forum.
You may test that the user clicked no button:
While WshShell.Popup(strText, 15, strTitle, nType) <> -1
WEnd

I am trying to do it in a way that no buttons will be on the form.

In that case I would suggest using the IE object and basically popping up an IE window that displays whatever your message is.
