MessageBox is from the .NET framework and can ben called by any of the .NET languages. MsgBox is older VB only.

MsgBox is the default one, you show a string and wait for the user to click the msgbox button
in Messagebox.show you can add a custom buttons and icon etc..

MessageBox.Show(message, caption, MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question)
