No one knows why msgbox doesn't work?

[jinglin]

Every computer in our computer encounters this problem, when we want to show a message box to the users. We’d write a line like this:
Messagebox.show (“User name has to be entered.”)
All we got is a blank message box without anything on it.

Besides, the combobox and listbox won’t show any list items even though we write something in their items property.

Can anyone help us out?? Thanks!

I can't see any problem here at messagebox.show("..."). It works fine even writing: msgbox("..."). Try this in bold instead.

As for the items added by default (not in runtime) Do these:

1. expand the Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "
2. Goto find this: Me.ListBox1.Items.AddRange(New Object() {"item1", "item2", "item3", ....etc})

This should exist in the region.


Quite strange these you both are talking about.
Hope helped a little

If you are running McAffee antivirus, go download the patch.
There is a known problem w/ the current unpatched version that messes up messageboxes and other .Net controls causing the text to not display.

Yep Rick's right! Had forgotten this issue

It just won't work no matter how I tried.
I think Rick is right. Our company does use McAffee antivirus for our computer.

Thank you all for your help
