Hi Zlatin,

I found Alert program in Downloads section written by Dragan Nedeljkovich. He passes a semicolon delimited list of buttons captions, so we can have unlimited number of buttons. I enhanced this program by adding ability to show standard VFP icon (I added a 5th parameter with a character picture to pass). We have all messagebox images in our BMPS directory (I don't know, where they come from, probably from another Download).

The only little thing I don't like in this program, what it uses its own font, and not the default font in MessageBox, so the look is slightly different, than standard messagebox. Anyway, I can live with it, or I can go the hard route and implement retrieving of MessageBox font attributes, as shown in Vlad's FAQ (he once helped me to find these properties for Form's Title bar).
