MsgBox does not interrupt code

[adamioan]

Greetings to all,
I have an issue with a MsgBox.
I do a check in a sub called DownloadCompleted which is the callback sub of HttpUtils. The MsgBox appears but the code continues to be executed and the app exits, closing the msgbox too.
Here is a code sample

Msgbox("In order to get the program initialized, please connect to the internet." , "No internet connection")
' Exit program
StopService (HttpUtils2Service)
SaveSettings
Activity.Finish
Return

What can I do to stop the code at the appearance of the msgbox?
Thanks in advance.

Running: Android 4.0.3 on HTC HD2 with Nexus ICS CM9

I assume the DownLoadCompleted is in the HttpUtils code module? You could move the code in this sub to a new sub in the main activity. Now in the DowloadCompleted sub, call your new sub in your main activity and it would contain your MsgBox and other code.

You can give the following a try:

Dim result As Int
result = Msgbox2("In order to get the program initialized, please connect to the internet." , "No internet connection", "OK", "", "", null)

if result = DialogResponse.Positive Then

    ' Exit program
    StopService (HttpUtils2Service)
    SaveSettings
    Activity.Finish
    Return

end if

Thank you both for your response.
Sadly neither worked. When I used the code by mc73, it did continue to run but I noticed that the response of MsgBox (without click on it) was -3.
The only way to make the code stop, was to capture the response within a while loop

do while Msgbox2("In order to get the program initialized, please connect to the internet." , "No internet connection", "OK", "", "", null)<>-3
loop
