Description

Call ShowMessagePos to display a simple message box with an OK button at a specified location. The name of the application's executable file appears as the caption of the message box.

The Msg parameter is the message that appears in the message box.

X and Y specify the screen coordinates where the message box should appear. A value of –1 means that the message box can appear anywhere in the specified dimension.

To display a message in a message box with other buttons, or with an icon, use the MessageDlg function.

Note: If the user types Ctrl+C in the message box, the text of the message is copied to the clipboard.
