Derek,
Assuming you do not have a Base Class derived from Page
to handle common look and feel across fo application..
if you can afford to implement PageController architecture
explained below, it is cakewalk to handle the display of
this type of message and any other messages the way you
like..
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-us/dnpatterns/html/ImpPageController.asp
Code for any UI could be centralized with this aproch
Regards
Sree
