Hi !

I wonder if anyone can help. Is anyone aware of a way to get Access to
display a popup message (or msgbox) on the user's Desktop so that it will
appear even if Access itself is minimized, basically I want to try and
achieve something similar to the notification message that Outlook generates
when a new email arrives.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

Many thanks !

Dan
 
Make a search for "topmost" at KB. This implies API but should give you what
you are looking for.
 
Hi !

Many thanks for your reply, in the end I was able to achieve the desired
result by calling the MessageBoxEx API and using MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION to
force the message box to the foreground.

Once again though thank you for your help. Regards

Dan
