Customise title wording in dialogue boxes

I have seen somewhere, but cannot remember where, how to edit/customise the
title bar wording in the standard dialogue boxes (for example when a
validation is set, or when I use code to trigger a pop-up warning message
such as "Please enter the order date"). The standard boxes are headed
Microsoft Office Access but I would like to change this to show the name of
our system.
Maybe the proposed solution that I saw was to create one's own dialogue
boxes from scratch rather than modify the standard ones and I would be happy
to do that.
I'm using Access 2003 SP3.
Many thanks

If you are using the MsgBox command, the Title is the 3rd argument. For
example:

=msgbox("Whaz UP?",vbYesNo,"Worlds Greatest Application")
will show the title bar as Worlds Greatest Applicaiton.
 
Or, if you mean Inputboxes, you can add a title in the call.
MyValue = InputBox(Message, Title, Default)

and to add to the other responses, the InputBox() function has a Title
argument, just as the MsgBox() function does.
