, or should I use the WinForms message box?

Window is the root control that must be used to hold/host other controls (e.g. Button) as container. Page is a control which can be hosted in other container controls like NavigationWindow or Frame.

. It has a quite similar interface, but uses other enumerations for parameters and return value.
