Hi all, is it possible to use the office assistant as a "Fancy textbox"
?

Les,

I can't say I really understand what you are asking, but most people that I
know turn the office assistant off, it is just too annoying.

Would a custom userform do what you want?

I think it must be the jovial festive season.. Was just wondering if one
could use the wizard like a pop up message with the animations...and
upon clicking ok that it just hide's again..

Try This :

'----------------------------
Sub YesNo()
Assistant.Sounds = True
Assistant.On = True
With Assistant.NewBalloon
..Animation = 112
..BalloonType = 1
..Button = 4
..Heading = "Save" & vbLf & "Your modifications ?"
..Icon = 6
..Mode = 0
If .Show = -3 Then MsgBox "Ok for jovial festive season!", 64
End With
Assistant.On = False
End Sub
'----------------------------

Be aware, if the Office Assistant is not installed the code will not work.
