Android Question [Solved]Quick question about MsgBox

I have been looking at some of the sample projects from the source folders of the beginners guide and the users guide and I noticed something that is interesting but I can't seem to see how it is done.

The project here \UsersGuide\SourceCode\DBUtilsExamples\LoadIntoListView

displays a MsgBox that looks different than what I am seeing in my apps.
I can not seem to locate anything in the code or referenced libs that would account for this so am wondering how it comes to have a different appearance there than in the apps I have been creating?

In a basic app the msgbox shows a generic looking dialog, solid color with a little ok on it
In this app the same statement shows a two tone box Black with title and text then gray with an OK button.

Just curious why it is different here using the same statement and what other possible appearances it may be capable of.
I like this one better than the default so would like to use it in some cases.

It depends on the Theme (and Api) your app is using. Using Minsdk 4 will have another look than minsdk 14

Additionally in Android the Theme has changed.

I guess one is using the old theme and the other one is using a new theme (or even Appcompat-theme).
