If you just want to let the messagebox() wrap the line, make sure you put either a trailing space at the end of each part of the text, or a leading space at the beginning of the next part of the text: 'this is a test with trailing space ' + 'of this' or 'Another test' + ' of this with leading space.' These are just the rules for concatenating any string...
