Question

I am using a MessageBox to try and do some manual debugging and this is all i have come up with, how am I supposed to make it work?

private void DisplayMessageBoxText()
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Alert Message");
        }

Ive used http://www.gurock.com/smartinspect/ a lot, its great for logging various changes, can grab all sorts of objects, statuses and the like. the plus side is you can leave it in your code and if you have problems later, just connect in the listener and see whats happening.

throwing message boxes could also interrupt your program, as you are changing focus, depending on where the error occurs in your app, such as if its a focus/key type problem, you can then have more code happening as the unfocus/refocus type messages get processed.
