Custom MsgBox in Access. Part 8: Format Properties

In this Microsoft Access tutorial series, we focus on creating a custom message box using VBA, enhancing the standard MsgBox function.

In Part 8, we will learn how specify the height and width of the form. This way whether you want a form that's tall and narrow, or short and stubby, you can have it your way. We'll also see how to use Anchoring to have the prompt label stretch according to the new size.

Members

Members will learn how to center the three buttons in the middle of the form at its new size. This will involve some math and some VBA.
