The following code example demonstrates how to display aMessageBox with the options supported by this overload ofShow. After verifying that a string variable,ServerName, is empty, the example displays aMessageBox, offering the user the option to cancel the operation. If theShow method's return value evaluates to Yes, the form that displayed theMessageBox is closed.
private: void validateUserEntry5() { // Checks the value of the text. if ( serverName->Text->Length == 0 ) { // Initializes the variables to pass to the MessageBox::Show method. String^ message = "You did not enter a server name. Cancel this operation?"; String^ caption = "No Server Name Specified"; MessageBoxButtons buttons = MessageBoxButtons::YesNo; System::Windows::Forms::DialogResult result; // Displays the MessageBox. result = MessageBox::Show( this, message, caption, buttons ); if ( result == ::DialogResult::Yes ) { // Closes the parent form. this->Close(); } } }private void validateUserEntry5(){ // Checks the value of the text. if(serverName.Text.Length == 0) { // Initializes the variables to pass to the MessageBox.Show method. string message = "You did not enter a server name.
