I'm using MessageBox:es to signal that an error has occured in the program, but whenever I use the caption "Error", or something that begins with "Error" (like "ErrorUpMy@$$") the message box instantly closes after activation.
Why does this happen? What's the point of this?
Works ok for me :confused:
My guess is that it's not closing because of the message box but the surrounding code.
I made several tests on the same code, only changing the CAPTION field.
The message box always closes ~0.5 sec after showing up when the CAPTION string begins with "Error", but stays open when it doesn't (until you press OK ).
Haven't anyone else experienced this?
Nope - care to show your code (not just the msgbox code, but that surrounding it, too)
You can download the program + source at my homepage http://www.geocities.com/magos818/cprog/war3color.html.
As I said the problems only occur when the caption begins with "Error", so I simply named it something else, and the problems were gone.
They appear again if you rename it to "Error***" again though.
Very weird!
