MessageDlg function

Hi,

Is it possible to include custom button in MessageDlg?
For example button OK with different text on its face (' Send').

No, you can't do this, but if you have the Delphi professional and
have the source code, it's fairly easy to copy the code
(it's in Dialogs.Pas) and create a new function of your own that
uses such custom buttons.

Good luck!

Good solution. It gets at a real problem in Delphi. The glyphs in
dialogs.pas uniquely brand your application as Delphi, and if you want
your application to have a custom look, you will want to ditch them
altogether. So consider modifying Dialogs.pas itself to either ditch
the glyphs or add your own to achieve a custom look.
