I applied the patch succesfuly, but it doesn't help, either in managed or non-managed mode. The message box still pops up for a second and then disappears. I was wondering why message boxes are allowed to be APPLMODAL, TASKMODAL and SYSTEMMODAL, while other dialog boxes aren't. I feel it would have been simpler and cleaner to implement TASK/SYSTEM/APPL modality in windows/dialog.c instead of windows/msgbox.c, as dialog.c already disables the root ancestor of the dialog parent. I still haven't found out how to increase the extra memory of the MSGBOX class. Any info will be appreciated. Laurent Pinchart
