The Kettic Message Box is designed for .NET UI designers to display a message box to show text, buttons, and symbols that inform and instruct the user. Additionally, the message box displays system icon, status, and error information. When using the message box control to display text, buttons, and symbols, we just need to call the static method, MessageBox.Display, instead of creating a new instance of the message box C# class. We use the message box properties to control the title, message, buttons, and icons that will be displayed in the message box. How to Use the Message Box Control in C#
