Default Example of box with more than OK and cancel options?

I've looked and looked on the net for example of inputboxes or message
boxes that have more than the options of OK and cancel, i.e., to do a
third thing. But have not had any luck. I guess it's because I don't
know what to ask for so my search brings up a wide variety of possible
responses but that don't deal with the question at hand. Can someone
pls point me to what this would be called, perhaps? I just need to
see some working code to figure this out. Tx.

Yes, I saw that, but it's not "No" I need. Sorry, I really must not
have been clear in my original question, then. I need to put a box
that actually has a small phrase on it. That's what I meant. Is
there a way to do that? No and Cancel pretty much mean the same thing
in terms of end result, so the above is no good.

Thx much. :oD

You can do that with mgbox

ans = MsgBox("my phrase", VbYesNo)

? Huh? I still only "Yes" and "No" as the buttons. I need a third
button with a phrase. Will the above do that? Somehow, I'm not sure.
I think the phrase above is for the title bar only not for a button,
yes?

If you want a phrase for the button, use a userform.
