Is it possible to display a message on the user's screen without using msgbox? I'm looking to just have a message appear in the upper right-hand corner of the screen when a user launches the project.

Thanks.

You can use another form.

It doesn't require user interaction, you can unload it when you want, place it where you want, set it's properties to make it look like you want and reuse it.

You can put a text box where you want the message, then make it visible only when you want it to be seen. You can also change the message, if you want to.

For example:

Text box name is "Message1"

Message1.visible = True
Message1.Value = "Your Text Here"

 
Great info - Thanks!
