Set the TimerInterval to 500 (or whatever) and in the Timer event have code... Me.TextBoxName.Visible = Not Me.TextBoxName.Visible (use with caution as flashing graphics are generally frowned upon)

While it's probably possible to do this with a message box, it would take a lot of API calls. It's simpler to create your own form that simulates the message box, and then use the technique shown above.
