Windows: How to display a non-blocking Alert/Confirmation window?


I want to realize a simple confirmation/alert box which can be called using a Windows XP/Vista batch script by CLI.

The standard alert box seems to be blocking which means that the whole batch script will stop at the time of the alert window call which is NOT what I want.

If it needs to be coded, please supply an example or documentation. Language can be anything that is compileable without requiring a virtual machine in between.


Solution

  • start MessageBox.vbs
    

    ...where MessageBox.vbs contains a call to the MsgBox function.
