Creating a method for error messageboxes

[wskitchen]

I am building a pretty in depth wage calculator for class and I have to display a message box whenever a user's cumulative input for one days hours exceeds 24. In this phase of the project the professor wants me to encapsulate these error messages into a method to be called from the locations where I originally had these messages coded. I'm not sure how to proceed here. An example of my message is as follows:

if (dblTotalMon > 24)
{
MessageBox.Show (
"There are only 24 hours in a day! Please re-enter your hours.",
"Input Error", MessageBoxButtons.Ok,
MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation);
}

I have a lot of these messages and need to put them in a method within my form.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Ok... so, you have to essentially write a wrapper for the existing method MessageBox.Show( )?

void ShowError( string errMsg, string caption )
{
    MessageBox.Show( errMsg, caption, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error );
}
