The easiest way to make a msgbox?

What's the easiest way to make an messagebox, can I somehow just use the insert resource thing? (ctrl+r or insert-resource...) or do I actually have to write code for it myself..

let's say I have the classical Hello World

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
cout << "Hello World";
return 0;
}

how can I make this into a msgbox, can I use the insert resource, and in that case, how do I do it..

thanks

MessageBox(NULL, "message box caption", "message box title", +MB_OK);
}


//this will create a message box with an ok button, you need to include windows.h to use the MessageBox function

The whole program is this:


#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,LPSTR lpCmdLine,int nCmdShow)
{
MessageBox(NULL,"Put Message Here", "Put Title Here", MB_OK);

return 0;
}

ian, I noticed that you put a plus before MB_OK, was this just a mistake or does it have a real signifigance ? (I know that's spelt wrong...)

Remember, before you do this, make it a Win32 Application, and not a Win32 Console Application...I always here about people making this mistake, and it should be avoided.

it can be a console app.
you just need the windows.h header included.

this will work

Code:

---

#include <windows.h>

int main()
{
 MessageBox(NULL, "Message", "Title", MB_OK);
 return 0;
}
