;MessageRequester(Title$, Text$, Flags)

;The Flags parameter can be any of these values, 
;along with ones in the docs.

;#MB_ICONQUESTION
;#MB_ICONEXCLAMATION
;#MB_ICONASTERISK
;#MB_ICONWARNING
;#MB_ICONERROR
;#MB_ICONINFORMATION
;#MB_ICONSTOP

;Could we add these to the documentation...

;Try this little test:

MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "Question is", #MB_ICONQUESTION)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "Supprise!!!", #MB_ICONEXCLAMATION)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "Info at last", #MB_ICONASTERISK)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "Supprise 2!!!", #MB_ICONWARNING)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "In Error", #MB_ICONERROR)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "more Info", #MB_ICONINFORMATION)
MessageRequester("MessageRequester Icon", "Stop now", #MB_ICONSTOP)

Hi Jose
Yes, you can add the win32 API #flags to have different icons on your "MessageRequester()" command... To optimize and have smaller programs, you can just use the pure API command instead the PureBasic command:

MessageBox_ (0,"InfCocoaMessage","WindowName",#MB_ICONINFORMATION|#MB_OK)

You can use some more API flags like #MB_OK : #MB_YESNO and some more... Have a look to the Win32 API help

PIII450, 256MB Ram, 6GB HD, RivaTNT, DirectX8.1, SB AWE64, Win2000 + all Updates...

Good Tip Thorsten,

Sometimes you look....but you don't see.

Not really, because the Amiga and Linux don't support these constants.
That's why MessageRequester uses its own cross-platforms equivalents of
these, such as #PB_MessageRequester_YesNo and so on.
