handle initiated MsgBox

Hi,
 
What conditions do i need to set to an initiated MsgBox command so I can close it when something changes via $WM_COMMAND like for instance when WM_DEVICECHANGE sees a different drive (while MsgBox is still showing)
 
so I can close the MsgBox from there ($WM-Function) with auto answering "no" to it
 
I see there is a command like _GUICtrlButton_Click that may be used for this
but I'm guessing I need the MsgBox's win-handle for this to work  or can the win-handle be retrieved as soon as the MsgBox is launched
 
What would be the right way to handle this Msgbox
TIA for any idea's on this

Treat a third party message box as you would any other external window.

If it's an autoit MsgBox, then that is a blocking function because it's main purpose is for user interaction.

Suggest you create custom GUI to emulate MsgBox so a script loop can still be operating.

Here is an example in code 

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


;~ $WM_DEVICECHANGE = 0x0219
$dbt_deviceremovecomplete = "0x00008004"
$dbt_devicearrival = "0x00008000"

$hGUI = GUICreate("GUI",200,200)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("insert a pen drive", 100, 100, 101, 17)
$Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("insert a pen drive", 24, 152, 106, 20)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 10, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
AdlibRegister('_AdlibCall')
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_DEVICECHANGE, "MyFunc")
GUISetState()
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd

Func MyFunc($hWndGUI, $MsgID, $wParam, $lParam)
If $wParam == $dbt_devicearrival Or $wParam == $dbt_deviceremovecomplete Then
Global $read2 = "1"
Global $read1 = "1"
EndIf
EndFunc

Func _AdlibCall()
If IsDeclared("read2") Then
If $read1 = $read2 Then
Global $read1 = "2"
Local $confirm = MsgBox(36, "test", "pull out PenDrive and auto close me when device status has changed")
EndIf
EndIf
EndFunc
