Solution 1

Message Box is a part of Windows form application, and you are trying to use in Web form application, that's why its not appearing in you in Intellisense.

Solution 2

If this is ASP.NET as you say, then that implies a website: and MessageBox doesn't work on websites because it would appear at the server, not the client.

Hence Intellisense doesn't offer it as an option...

How do accomplish this task in the web?

Normally you wouldn't: a MessageBox type notification on WinForms is generally a notice that there is a problem with validation or similar, and that is often handled via the client side Javascript rather than round-tripping to the server.
