TitleCopy the text contents of any messagebox (Visual Basic .NET example)
DescriptionThis example shows how to copy the text contents of any messagebox (Visual Basic .NET example).
KeywordsMessagebox, message box, copy message box, VB.NET
CategoriesMiscellany, Windows
 
Did you know that you can copy the text in any message box? While the message box has the focus, press Ctrl-C. The message box beeps to try to make you think you have done something wrong but it copies its caption, text, and button captions into the clipboard.

Now click on a text box and press Ctrl-V to paste the results.

This Visual Basic .NET example just displays a message box and provides a text box where you can paste the results.
