The VB message boxes can be simulated rather well with both JavaScript and of course Ajax. Do you have any issues with doing it with Ajax?
Is it correct that msgBox messages can not be displayed in Asp.Net and need to be written in javascript? I know they can be displayed by adding an OnClientClick function direct to a button click, but I have been trying to call a msgBox direct from a page_load subroutine. I can code quite well in ASP.Net but am almost completely useless at javascript so I would rather avoid it all together.
I have no problems using AJAX, in fact I love AJAX, but again, I have very little experience with it, so am not sure how to go about it.
You can have a lot of fun with it once you get used to a few things. Good place to start would be these Videos: http://www.asp.net/learn/videos/default.aspx?tabid=63 And of course the Control Toolkit, which is even more fun to work with: http://ajax.asp.net/ajaxtoolkit/
