    Access Europe User Group - Wed 1 Oct: High impact – Custom dialogs and mini-notifications (Marcus Di

    Oops - it appears I forgot to post this prior to the event! This is what you missed!
    The video is now on YouTube - see post #2

    ================================================== =

    The next
    Access Europe User Group meeting will be on Wednesday 1 Oct 2025 starting at 18:00 UK time (6PM UTC+1) and finishing by 19:30 (7.30PM). For local times, please check World Time Buddy

    In this session, we are very pleased to welcome Marcus Dieterle who is from Germany

    Anyone who works with Access knows them all too well: MsgBox and InputBox. Functional? Yes. Modern, appealing or user-friendly? Unfortunately not.


    These standard dialogs seem - let's say - a bit outdated. And if we're honest: Who actually reads these standard messages carefully anymore? Most people simply click on “OK” without even risking a glance.

    Marcus will present his new dialogs. These are myMsgBox, myInputBox, myComboBox, and myNotification. These can be used to display not only formatted text, but also images and tables.
    • MyMsgBox and myInputbox are alternatives to the standard dialogs.
    • MyComboBox is similar to an InputBox, but allows you to select values from a combobox.
    • MyNotification is a sleek and fast notification using an icon on the screen.




    I hope you will join us on Wed 1 Oct for this session.
