Messagebox

I am following a coding example from some training materials and my environment is not functioning in quite the same way. In the example when messagebox. is keyed IntelliSense provides a drop down list of methods.

When I do the same I do not get the drop list. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It says "New to ASP.NET" in your signature - are you writing WinForms or WebForms? The MessageBox is only available in WinForms.

Thanks for the reply. I am trying to develop a Web Form. The instructor on the training was demonstrating error handling for an ADO.NET connection and certainly has a Windows Form in the example.

I am looking to display a sqlError exception message from a Try ... Catch.

You need to add the following statement at the top of your code file:

VB:

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

C#:

using System.Data.SqlClient

ADO.NET can be used in either win or web apps, so it doesn't matter which one your instructor used. But you can't use the System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox in a web application (which runs on the server) - you'll need to use client-side java script to display a message box: http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=5918
