GeneralStrange "MessageBox" Behavior Pin

Hi:

I am currently going through a Wrox book "Professional C++, 2nd Edition". I have been typing in the example code myself and have encountered a strange problem.

Each time an example program uses a "MessageBox" call, the message box is launched, but there is no print on it. The button is there, and it works as expected when you click it but there is no text on the box window OR the push-button.

As a sanity check, I created a basic Windows App using the app wizard. I made one single change to the code: In the constructor for Form1, right after the call to "InitializeComponents", I added the line:

MessageBox("Hello ?");

Same result.

I am using Visual Studio.NET V7.0 with .NET Framework 1.1.4322 SP1. I am running on Windows XP-Pro with all of the latest service packs. I have also transfered the executable code from some of these programs to another machine with the same results.

Has anybody out there had this problem? Any idea what might be going on?

Thanks in advance for you help
Mark
