Hyperlinks within AfxMessageBox

Question

Hello,

Is it possible to add hyperlinks to websites/email to messages that appear in windows created by AfxMessageBox? If not, what is a simple way to replace a AfxMessageBox call with one that spawns a similar-looking window with text that contain hyperlinks?

Thanks.

You can't use the standard MessageBox for this (whether wrapped by AfxMessageBox or not) but there are a couple of other options for you:

1. If you're using Vista, you can use the TaskDialog class instead.
2. If not, you can adapt one of the MessageBox replacement classes (such as XMessageBox) to support this functionality.
