MZ-Tools offers the following ways to launch the MessageBox Assistant:

- The keyboard shortcut associated with the MZTools6_VSXXXX.MessageBoxAssistant command.
The MessageBox Assistant window is the following:
In this window you can enter the following:

- Text: the prompt of the message box.
- Icon: the icon of the message box, if any.
- Buttons and default button: the combination of buttons of the message box and the button which will be preselected when showing the message box.
- Options: several MessageBoxOptions values that you can check. See the .NET Framework help about the meaning of these options.
Once you have entered all the values, you can:
- Preview the message box.
- Insert the message box code into the current procedure.
- Copy the message box code to the clipboard for later use.
