Is there a MessageBox equivalent in WPF

Question

Is there a standard message box in WPF  like WinForms  System Windows Forms MessageBox Show    or should I use the WinForms message box

The MessageBox in the Extended WPF Toolkit is very nice   It s at Microsoft Windows Controls MessageBox after referencing the toolkit DLL   Of course this was released Aug 9 2011 so it would not have been an option for you originally   It can be found at Github for everyone out there looking around

As the others say  there is a MessageBox in the WPF namespace  System Windows    The problem is that it is the same old messagebox with OK  Cancel  etc  Windows nbsp Vista and Windows nbsp 7 have moved on to use Task Dialogs instead   Unfortunately there is no easy standard interface for task dialogs  I use an implementation from CodeProject KB
