Um... Do you mean like a message box that you can input stuff into, but only has a true/false button? I don't think there is one. Or do you mean one that will return true/false based on the value? There you'd have to code your own.

Can you please explain what you are trying to do a little bit more?

Simply id like to ask this question "The insalled version and the on disk version are the same, are you sure you would like to install this app again"

OK, CANCEL buttons or YES, NO buttons could be used

the result must be nothing but True or False

Ah.

Code:

Dim mbrResult As VbMessageBoxResult
mbrResult = MsgBox("The installed version and the on-disk version are the " &  _ 
    "same, are you sure you would like to install this application again?", _
    vbYesNoCancel + vbQuestion, "Are you sure?")

Select Case mbrResult
    Case vbYes 
        'User selected "YES"

    Case vbNo
        'User selected "NO"

    Case vbCancel
        'User selected "CANCEL"

    Case Else
        'Something's wrong, this wasn't an option to select!!!

End Select
