Reply to DesktopX 2.4x bug reports in Bug Reports WinCustomize Forums

I'm not sure if this is a DX bug, but it's been driving me nuts. If I code a Msgbox() in a script I'm working on, it doesn't show all the information I write to have displayed in it. It will display one line and just have blank space after that.
