I am using VS 2005 with the Compact Framework 2.0.
The messagebox class' show method has two issues out of the box that violate the PPC Logo Requirements.
First, when the messagebox is displayed it hides the SIP, and I do not know how to stop it from hiding the SIP. Does anyone know of a better message box that does not hide the SIP or a way to stop this
Second, the message box is centered and does not move when the input panel is displayed over it. I think that I can fix this by using some API calls to find the messagebox window and move it when the SIP is up. Does this sound like the right way to handle this or is there a more complient Message box that handles this
TIA,
Al
CF2.0 MessageBox SIP Issues

The Compact Framework exposes the MessageBox as developed by the Pocket PC team. The message box dialog is an operating system defined window, and it is not recommended to attempt to modify it in any way. Different versions of the PocketPC operating system will implement the message box with different windows. If it does not meet your requirements we recommend you construct your own message box using the visual designer in Visual Studio.
