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)

I believe Tom was asking about a message box.

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.

Doh! Looked right at Message Box several times and saw Text Box.
