variable into messagebox text

[Octagon6]

How do I get a variable displayed in my messagebox text?

Octagon6,

Is this what you want to do:

MyVariable="Message I want to display"
=messagebox(MyVariable)

What kind of variable is it? In general, you can use transform() or some other to-string conversion function to include it in your MB text. e.g.

messagebox("The Time is: "+transform(time()))
messagebox("The Date and Time is: "+transform(datetime()))
messagebox("The number ten in a string: "+transform(10))
messagebox("The number ten in a string: "+str(10,2))
messagebox(".T. looks like this: "+transform(.T.))

I just tested these all in VFP 6.0 -> 8.0.
