Surprised to hear that.

As VisualBasic programmer I would expect you to have experience with 
ActiveX on Windows, where the best way to go with Python is to reuse all 
the ActiveX components and their known user interfaces (i.e. constants 
to use as parameter and constants for interpretation of return values) 
directly from within Python.

A message box goes e.g. this way:

 >>> import win32com.client
 >>> axWshShell = win32com.client.Dispatch("WScript.Shell")
 >>> axWshShell.Popup(u"(MsgText)This axWshShell.Popup closes itself 
after 45 seconds", 45, u"(MsgTitle)Testing WScript.Shell object:", 1)

By the way: is there a ready for direct use timed self closing Ok/Cancel 
message box in any of the proposed GUI packages?
