From windows 2000, when a MessageBox popped out, you can use Ctrl+C to copy the content of the MessageBox window to the clipboard. It is a very interesting trick, and it is very usrful to share the information easily.

The condition is only that the MessageBox window was created by MessageBoxA/MessageBoxW from the win32 api. Whether you call AfxMessageBox or CWnd::MessageBox in vc or MsgBox in vb, they finally call the ::MessageBoxA or ::MessageBoxW, so it also works.

Here is a example.

1. When some message box popped, press Ctrl+C to copy.
