============================ Installing the MsgBox3D Demo ============================ The MsgBox statement and function provided with Microsoft's Visual Basic lacks a three dimensional "look". MsgBox3D replicates the functions provided by VB's MsgBox and adds a three dimensional effect. The files included in the demo zip file [MsgB3D.Zip] are: MsgDmo3D.Exe Demo Program MsgBox3D.Hlp Help File ThreeD.VBX Three Dimensional Control ReadMe.Txt The Read Me File ThreeD.VBX is provided with the Professional version of Microsoft's Visual Basic. Copy the ThreeD.VBX file to your Windows\System directory. Copy the Help file to your Windows directory. Use the demo [MsgDmo3D] to compare the difference between the VB MsgBox and the 3D MsgBox. Display the Help file to learn how to use MsgBox3D. MsgDmo3D uses VBRun300.DLL. Cost is $4.95 plus $2.95 USPO shipping or $1.95 if sent via CompuServe.
