You have to create your own custom message box to achieve this functionality.

If you look at the MessageBox class, and the methods/properties associated:
MSDN: Message Box[^]
The functionality asked by you is not provided.

Solution 1

The MessageBox is a system dialogue and and cannot be manipulated directly.

In order to customise the MessageBox you will have to create your own Form that duplicates the functionality. You can then manipulate it to your heart's content.

You could use the technique[^]
to reset the buttons text (SetDlgItemText()) in the hooks procedure :)
