Hello!
I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.

How can I make a message box that can confirm action?
This is my code:
VB
Private Sub BTNunlock_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BTNunlock.Click
        Try
            sqlsa = "UPDATE MAS_Users set islocked='0' WHERE empno='" & TBempno.Text & "'"
            con.NoReturnQuery(sqlsa)
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Error!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
        End Try
    End Sub


When I click the button, i want to show a message box that says: Confirm update? with the buttons: Yes or No

if picked yes, my data will update, if not, then no.
How can i make one?

Thanks in advance! :)

Hope the below code example will help -

VB
Dim result As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Confirm update?", _
                              "Title", _
                              MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)

If(result == DialogResult.OK)
    Update data here
Else
    Nothing
End If

Dim ask As MsgBoxResult = MsgBox("What you Want", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo)
       If ask = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then

       End If

See the comments to Solution 1 - you haven't really added anything to the solutions from four years ago.
Stick to answering new posts where the OP still needs help - and be sure that your response is not just repeating earlier solutions or comments, and that it is accurate.
this one... (simple one)

VB
Dim ans as string
ans= Msgbox "Confirm Update", vbYesNo
if ans= vbYes then
 'code to update
end if

y not using the newer and comfortable MessageBox.Show()
Msgbox is vb6 compatibility

either way, that is, I think, okay. OP even tag VB on his/her question.

PS. I really often use MessageBox.Show(), it's just that, Msgbox is what came first in my mind. :)
Dont declare variable.

If MsgBox("What you Want", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo) = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then

End If

Eight years late, and you've added nothing to the discussion. Declaring a variable to store the result is not the problem!
