I found long ago that using Messagebox to ellicit a yes/no response happens so often that I made a function to handle it. I include it below for you if you wish. I call it sysCONFIRM. It's called like the following.

If sysConfirm("Are you sure you wish to quit this process", "Confirm Quit").  

You don't need to worry about the return numeric values of Messagebox. Even if you miss out the the message and caption params it will default to "Are you sure?"
