You can create your own custom MessageBox by designing a form with a label and your button configurations. Then pass the value of the label in the Open Args, if you want to worry about parsing the OpenArgs, then you could even include the title and which buttons are visible. I haven't done it, but it sounds straight forward enough.

If you are talking about error messages you will of course have to "trap" the error to display your own message instead.
