Vb.net messagebox yes.no buttons to have other text

messageboxvb.net

The following code is a nice example of generating a message box with two buttons.

Dim result1 As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Would you like to klick yes?", "Example", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)

Though this is now dictating the question possed to either result in a yes or no answer. What if I want a create and Add buttons instead of Yes and no buttons example being…

Dim result1 As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Would you like to create a new customer or add an existing customer?", "New order", MessageBoxButtons.CreateAdd)

How could I achieve sothing like this?

You cannot achieve that with a MessageBox. If you want to customize the look and feel of those boxes you should write your own custom WinForm that you should display instad of using a MessageBox.

Vb.net – conditional ternary operator in VB.NET

Depends upon the version. The If operator in VB.NET 2008 is a ternary operator (as well as a null coalescence operator). This was just introduced, prior to 2008 this was not available. Here's some more info: Visual Basic If announcement

Example:

Dim foo as String = If(bar = buz, cat, dog)

[EDIT]

Prior to 2008 it was IIf, which worked almost identically to the If operator described Above.

Example:

Dim foo as String = IIf(bar = buz, cat, dog)

C# – MessageBox equivalent in WPF

The WPF equivalent would be the System.Windows.MessageBox. It has a quite similar interface, but uses other enumerations for parameters and return value.
