Hi

MsgBox function would not work on ASP.Net pages instead try using this to show alerts

Replace the following

MsgBox("this room is booked from " & dr(0).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & " to " & dr(1).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & ".so this room is available from  the date " & dr(1).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & " onwards! ")

with this and try

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(Page), "alert", "<script language=JavaScript>alert('" + "this room is booked from " & dr(0).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & " to " & dr(1).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & ".so this room is available from  the date " & dr(1).ToString().Substring(0).Remove(10) & " onwards! " + "');</script>");

hi u have actually given code is not working ...........and it is not showing any error messages.........
why it is not working pls answer me .................

Hi,

Hope you had removed the ; at the end of the line before executing the code.

The code block should work. Since I dont have the working env of the database i was not able to execute the code and check. I just took the message withing the MSGBOX and replaced the same in the new syntax.

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript would register a javascript and would show an alert message during execution.

Please try again in case of any issues please give the solution and the database will check the same and would let you know the correct fix.

Thanks
