Custom message boxes

(OP)
I want to create a message box with the text "Which plant are you upgrading?" and three buttons: "Live" "Test" and "Cancel".

The text is not difficult to produce, but I do not know how to generate the buttons. I have searched the help instructions of the MsgBox function but it seems that the button settings are restricted (e.g. There is an option for Y/N buttons).

Does anybody know if it is possible to do it? Many thanks.

RE: Custom message boxes

The easy way is to create a custom form containing a label control and the appropriate number of buttons and then show it modally, retrieving the return value via a Public variable

Good Luck
