#Remarks

This method uses the XtraMessageBox.Show method to display a message box. To change this behavior, override the protected ShowCore method in a custom Messaging descendant (see How to: Implement a Custom Messaging Class) topic. The Messaging.ConfirmationDialogClosed event is triggered within the Show method, after the message box is closed.
