You can not accomplish it this way... only when you shell a second program that does it for you....

But why would you want to do something like this in the first place ?

Opening a msgbox this way it is allways visible on screen,even if the focus

is on another window.

Is there a another way to make a non focus control box allways visible on screen ?

Try SplashTextOn () and if that does what you want. MsgBox() is a blocking function, SplashTextOn () make a extra window popup with the TopMost attribute, and stays there till SplashTextOff ()...

what does that mean a " blocking function" as opposed to whatever this SplashTextOn does? What is SplashTextOn if it's not a blocking function?

Thanks

msgbox blocks the script processing until the msgbox is closed.

SlashTextOn displays a window with text and the script continues executing..

That does the trick!

Thank you for your help.
