    How to get message boxes up

    To get message boxes to be in your program, include windows.h. Then put:
    Code:
    MessageBox(NULL, "This is what will show up", "This is the caption(the thing in the upper left hand corner).", MB_OK/*Puts an OK box at the bottom*/);

    I think he's gone crazy. He just all of a sudden gets the urge to post how to make a message, which almost everybody already knows how to do.

    Just think, if this carries on, he will one day have produced the entire content of "Programming Windows" by Charles Petzold in random cprog posts.
