Rene,
Since that messagebox shows up under a special condition you could check the condition too or where it's checked place your keyboard after messagebox().
In VFP7 and later you could have 4th parameter (timeout) filled, so it advances automatically with your default button.

Hi Cetin,

Thank you for your quick response.

But the messagebox that should appear is not part of my code. It is part of the ActiveForm that have been triggered by the keyboard command as follows.
_screen.ActiveForm.CustomerNoText.value = 'CUSTOMER01' (This part will input the Customer #)
keyboard "{enter}" (This part will trigger the validation method of the Customer Text box).
The messagebox will be display by the validation which is the different program.
Note that the Invoice Form is already part of the .exe file.

Can we get the object name or window handle of the MessageBox window?
Or there is an API function that can determine the object name or window handle of the MessageBox window?


TIA,


Rene
