Using Access 2002 is it possible to have the text in a message box to
flash?

Set the TimerInterval to 500 (or whatever) and in the Timer event have
code...

Me.TextBoxName.Visible = Not Me.TextBoxName.Visible

(use with caution as flashing graphics are generally frowned upon)

I believe Tom was asking about a message box.

While it's probably possible to do this with a message box, it would take a
lot of API calls. It's simpler to create your own form that simulates the
message box, and then use the technique shown above.
