Hi Mephix..

To include multi-line in the MessageDLG, use the #10, #13 between each line:

MessageDLG(
  'This is on line #1' + #10 + #13 +
  'This is on line #2' + #10 + #13 +
  'This is on line #3',
  mtInformation,
  [mbOK],
  0);

The #10 is the LF (LineFeed) character
and the #13 is the CR (CarriageReturn)

PS. Don't forget to include the DIALOGS in your USES clauses

Wouldn't it be smarter to use
showmessage('mesage goes here!');
instead?

You need only one of  #13 or #10, although convention is to use a single #13,
the #10 can be omitted.
