I do not know Visual Basic, So I am Unsure if you can or cannot; however, why not just make a...

"Do You Want To Print?"

with a yes and no ?

or ... why not read:

I got a good solution for you. Add another form. Shrink the form to the size of a message box. place a button on the form called print. Now it will act just like a message box!

I'm pretty sure you can't just add a button to a MsgBox because it's a set command.
If you want to add a button, you need to use a separate form instead and call it up.

Well, for a msgbox, you need to enter at least a prompt message the format for a msgbox is as follows: MsgBox(prompt[, buttons][, title][, helpfile, context]). So, for example:

code:

MsgBox "Prompt",vbOKOnly,"Title bar"

That is all you need to do. For other buttons, follow this:

Quote:

vbOKOnly- Display OK button only.
vbOKCancel- Display OK and Cancel buttons.
vbAbortRetryIgnore- Display Abort, Retry, and Ignore buttons.
vbYesNoCancel- Display Yes, No, and Cancel buttons.
vbYesNo- Display Yes and No buttons.
vbRetryCancel- Display Retry and Cancel buttons.
vbCritical- Display Critical Message icon.
vbQuestion- Display Warning Query icon.
vbExclamation- Display Warning Message icon.
vbInformation- Display Information Message icon.
vbDefaultButton1- First button is default.
vbDefaultButton2- Second button is default.
vbDefaultButton3- Third button is default.
vbDefaultButton4- Fourth button is default.
vbApplicationModal- Application modal; the user must respond to the message box before continuing work in the current application.
vbSystemModal- System modal; all applications are suspended until the user responds to the message box.

Yo wargamer, im just curious, how would you detect if the user clicked Yes or no or cancel suppose we were to use vbYesNoCancel?

The msgBox will return a value to the form depending on what was clicked.
