Well you may have done a lot of work for nothing.  Take a look at some of
the .doc files in the \Borlandc\Doc Directory I think.  The Function you
want to use is
BWCCMessageBox(HWindow, "Message", "Title", MB_OK | MB_ICONS);

Make sure you #include <BWCC.H>

The Hand, "?", "!", and "i", take the place of the
Stop Sign, "?", "!" and "i" in windows regular message box

MessageBox(HWindow, "Message", "Title", MB_OK | MB_ICONS);
Check out the Windows API.

Good Luck!
