This is a major (and I mean major) re-build of my previous drop in form replacement of the windows input box/message box without using MS ocx.
Now the drop-in form has only one control (text box) and only ONE function to call! But you can still choose several styles of boxes: Input box, Message Box, Nag screen, Timed message box (splash screen?) and Combine them as you like!
No graphics controls at all but has improved gradients, owner drawn buttons, dock/drag control, pick the display location, show all, some, or no buttons, and more!
It is very customizable... you control color schemes, gradients, fonts, font color and (bold/italic...etc).

the .frx file.
