- Message Box Master v2.0 ReadMe
- ===============================
-
- Message Box Master is a message box creation add-in for Visual Basic 5.0 that supports
- all of VB's message box arguments and gives you multiple options for formatting the
- code generated.
-
-
- Message Box Master (MBM) Files
- ===============================
- If you have the complete .zip archive file, you should have the following files when
- unzipped:
-
- MBM.dll The working part of MBM
- MBMInstall.exe A Q&D install program for MBM
- MBMRemove.exe A Q&D uninstall program for MBM
- MBM.hlp MBM's online help file
- MBMReadme.txt This file
-
- If you are missing any files, please notify whomever you got the file from that they
- have an incomplete .zip file. Drop me an e-mail and I'll send you the complete file
- if something's missing.
-
-
- Installation
- =============
- To install Messsage Box Master, unzip the archive to the folder you want MBM to live
- in. All of the MBM files must be in the same folder for everything to work properly.
-
- After unpacking, run MBMInstall.exe. This program will register the .dll with RegSvr32
- and will add MBM to the VBAddIn.ini file. I do assume, though, that VBAddIn.ini is in
- the C:\Windows folder and that RegSvr32.exe is in the C:\Windows\System folder.
-
- After running install, start VB and select the Add-In Manager from the Add-Ins Menu and
- activate MBM.
-
- Read through the Help file for details on MBM's options and use.
-
-
- Removing MBM
- =============
- Should you decide you don't want MBM, run MBMRemove.exe. This program will unregister
- the .dll with RegSvr32 and will delete MBM from the VBAddIn.ini file. You can then
- delete the MBM* files from the folder you put them in during installation.
-
- All of the MBM filenames begin with MBM so that they will be grouped together in
- whatever folder you put them in.
-
-
- Compatibility
- ==============
- Message Box Master is a 32-bit ActiveX DLL that was written with and for Visual
- Basic 5.0 under Windows 95 and is known to be compatible with that combination.
-
- Since there is no registry usage, Message Box Master should also run under Windows NT.
-
- I'm not able to test under 32-bit Visual Basic 4.0 and can't say whether MBM will
- run in that environment.
-
-
- Distribution
- =============
- Message Box Master is shareware and Copyright (c) 1998 by Gary L. McLaughlin and
- Hollowpoint Software Systems and all commercial rights are reserved.
-
- Feel free to pass around, upload or otherwise distribute the unregistered version of
- MBM so long as whatever means of distribution used is free.
-
- All I ask is that you do so with the complete archive file so that the .dll, help,
- readme and install/uninstall files stay together.
-
