Message Box Creator

A free and open-source tool to create your very own message boxes!

Note: This program and the exported files work on Windows operating systems only.

Installation

1.4.0.0 and older

The release of these versions is just a portable EXE file you can run!

1.5.0.0 and newer

You can run the EXE file included in the ZIP folder, however I strongly recommend to run the installation batch script for the best experience!

Usage

Getting started

When you use Message Box Creator for the first time or want to make a new configuration, click the + button to generate a message box. You can create up to 10 message boxes in a configuration.

Entering data

To enter the data in the message box, click it in the list. Then, you can enter all it's values:

• The content of the message box;
• The title of the message box;
• The icon displayed in the message box (error, warning, question, information or none);
• The choices that can be made in the message box (OK, OK+Cancel, Yes+No, Yes+No+Cancel, Abort+Retry+Ignore, Retry+Cancel);
• Should it display always on top? If so, no icon can be displayed;
• Should it only show up when a specific choice has been made in the message box before?
  

Preview

You can get a preview of the message box you are currently editing by clicking the Preview button.

Saving a configuration

When you want to save your current configuration before exporting it, click the Save Configuration... button. This way, you can save a configuration file ending on .mbconfig that can only be read by Message Box Creator.

Loading a configuration

You can load a configuration by clicking the Load Configuration... button, or, in versions 1.5.0.0 and newer, if you installed Message Box Creator with the batch script, by launching it from File Explorer.

Exporting a configuration

When finished, click the Export button. The message box configuration will be exported to a .vbs file.

Have fun using Message Box Creator!
