Access offers a limited number of choices for button in MsgBox. What can I do when the answers "Yes", "No", "OK", "Cancel" are not informative.
They need long explanations like in the example below.
Select Case MsgBox( _
"You should write into the table using its standard handler form." & Chr(13) _
"Select Yes, if you want to close the table and open the form," & Chr(13) _
"Select No, if you want to close the table," & Chr(13) _
"Select Cancel, if you want to close the table.", _
vbYesNoCancel,"Message box with blah-blah"
Visual Prolog has spoiled me:
There I can give list of button texts for DlgAsk
predicate ["Accept","Read","Close"]. These button texts need not so much explanation as above.
What do recommend:
- Assistant balloon,
- Individual modal form with fixed answers for each selections as above,
- ???
