amazing! i would have never thought of this! Thank you very much! But a follow up question comes into my mind now:

Since the AfxMessageBox() creates its own message pump, shouldn't it have its own message map as well? I expected that this message map would only contain an entry that maps the "mouse clicking" message (WM_Whatever) to a OnClick handler. Why does it contain an entry that handles the WM_TIMER message as well?

Furthermore, even if we assume that it does contain such an entry, why the OnTimer of the CTimerTestingDlg object is called? I would expect to see the OnTimer implementation of the AfxMessageBox object to be called instead..

thank you very much for your response. Stopping the processing of new messages until the user dismisses the message box is exactly what i want to do. Do you know how this can be done? I mean is there any straightforward way, or i will have to do it "manually"?
