Pop Up message box?

Hopefully this is a simple one...

I'd like a separate dialog box with a fixed message and a close button to
pop up when my form loads. How do I make this happen?

Many thanks,
David
 
Rather than a dialog box, I would recommend a Message Box. There are issues
that may make a dialog not work like you want. You did not say how or when
you are opening this form, but basically it would be like:

MsgBox "My Fixed Message", vbOkOnly
DoCmd.OpenForm.....
 
OK,

I figured out on my own how to get a message box to come up. Since it seems
to not load the main form until the OK button is clicked, I'm wondering if
there is a way for the main form to load at the same time as the message box
that sits atop the main form?

Thanks
David
 
Are you wanting the message box to stay visible until the form has completed
loading and is visible?
