Just a noob question. How do you extend the msgbox wider?

In addition, how do you change the color of the text in the msgbox? I searched through the VBA for dummies book, and I couldn't find anything about this.

Thanks a big time.

You cannot change the message box properties, the message box will expand and contrat to accommodate the text you enter, to do what you want you need to create a userform to act as a messagebox then you can change all the properties you want :)

Nope not right!, you would have to change the Windows settings for that and it would affect your whole computer.
