 In the following example, the application displays a message box that prompts the user for an action after an error condition has occurred. The message box displays the message that describes the error condition and how to resolve it. The **MB\_YESNO** style directs [**MessageBox**](/windows/desktop/api/Winuser/nf-winuser-messagebox) to provide two buttons with which the user can choose how to proceed:

 The statements in the first part of the example create the modeless dialog box. These statements, in the window procedure for the application's main window, create the dialog box when the window procedure receives a [**WM\_COMMAND**](/windows/desktop/menurc/wm-command) message having the IDM\_GOTO menu identifier, but only if the global variable does not already contain a valid handle. The second part of the example is the application's main message loop. The loop includes the [**IsDialogMessage**](/windows/desktop/api/Winuser/nf-winuser-isdialogmessagea) function to ensure that the user can use the dialog box keyboard interface in this modeless dialog box. The third part of the example is the dialog box procedure. The procedure retrieves the contents of the edit control and check box when the user clicks the **OK** button. The procedure destroys the dialog box when the user clicks the **Cancel** button.
