Msgbox and vbInformation

[susheel777]

Hi..if I use a Msgbox with the button specified as vbInformation, will my program execution be paused until I click on the OK button? Or does the program keep running anyway?

Yes it will be paused.

Here's code to quickly check your query"
-----------------------
Dim X As Integer

For X = 1 To 5
MsgBox "Some message", vbInformation
Next
-----------------------

You will see that only one messagebox appears until pressed. This wil happen 5 times.

So the answer is :It is not so much the vbInformation property that means anything, but rather the fact the the msgbox function uses a modal form which will halt execution until it is acknowledged.
