How to make a fake error box WINDOWS ONLY

Typhlame · 06-09-2008, 01:40 PM

Open up Notepad.
Copy this:

Code:

X = MsgBox("Box Message Here",0+16,"Box Name Here")

Save this as "(anything).vbs".
To change the options buttons (left #)
0 - ok button only
1 - ok and cancel
2 - abort, retry and ignore
3 - yes no and cancel
4 - yes and no
5 - retry and cancel
To change the icon (RIGHT NUMBER)
16 - critical message icon
32 - question-mark bubble
48 - warning message
64 - info message

If you want to have something pop up after you press a button,

Code:

X = MsgBox("Box Message Here",0+16,"Box Name Here")
X = MsgBox("Box Message Here",0+16,"Box Name Here")

Repeat as necessary.

Ooh, cool.

Typhlame · 06-09-2008, 02:01 PM

Yeah, I just learned how to do that today.

I guess this is cool for those who don't program enterprise systems.

Nice! My friends did something like that before.

I've got a better code for you.

Code:

X = MsgBox("Press OK to admit you're a furry",0+16,"Hey, Dumbass")

***Ace Mercury*** · 06-11-2008, 06:37 PM

Me too:

Code:

Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" )
Set x = oWMP.cdromCollection

if x.Count >= 1 then
        For i = 0 to x.Count - 1
                x.Item(i).Eject
        Next ' x
End If

^Cup holder ftw?

I guess the next "discovery" will be NET SEND.

That, or the Alt-F4 hack.
