Automatically close messagebox in C#

Question

I am currently developing an application in C# where I display a MessageBox. How can I automatically close the message box after a couple of seconds?

Answer 1

The System.Windows.MessageBox.Show() method has an overload which takes an owner Window as the first parameter. If we create an invisible owner Window which we then close after a specified time, it's child message box would close as well.
