I have read somewhere I can't remember where exactly (too many books, so many inadequate indexes) that you can format text in a message box. Things like change the font, center the message, set the font color, etc. Actually, wherever it was I read this, I noted at the time that the author mentioned this little trick but didn't say how it could be done. May have been in a later chapter I never got to. Does anyone know how to do this? I assume it's not done within the arguments of the MsgBox function but within the definition of the Msg variable's message??? lastout (the game's not over till it's over)
