Studying Visual Basic step for step I entered a very simple program that has to display three MsgBox objects in succession.
The program code works, the boxes are displayed, they even have the appropriate width for the text they contain, but the text is not shown.
More, the OK-button which comes standard with the MsgBox works, but does not show the characters "O" and "K".
Running Visual Studio.Net 2003 under Windows XP
All security updates installed.
Installation of Visual Studio.Net repaired.
Out of idea's
BTW Message Boxes in Windows XP work fine.

Which AntiVirus package are you running on this PC There is a known conflict with one - I'll check my earlier posts and get you details (I tracked this one down some months ago for someone who had the same problem)
CDL
OK, I've tracked down my earlier info. Do you have McAfee VirusScan 8.0, by any chance
If so, that wll be the culprit. McAfee have a patch available on their web page .
Hope this helps

Thanks Ged
I installed the latest patch for McAfee 8.0 and that solved the issue.
Don't you just love the Internet I hope I can help somebody someday somehow somewhere like you did!
