# How to: Open a Dialog Box
|
|
This example shows how to open a dialog box.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
A dialog box is a window that is opened by instantiating <xref:System.Windows.Window> and calling the <xref:System.Windows.Window.ShowDialog%2A> method. <xref:System.Windows.Window.ShowDialog%2A> opens a window and doesn't return until the new dialog box has been closed. This type of window is also known as a *modal* window, and restricts user input.

|
|
|
|
## .NET Framework Security
|
|
Calling <xref:System.Windows.Window.ShowDialog%2A> requires permission to use all windows and user input events without restriction.
