I've inserted a MsgBox in some VBScript on line 12 of an .asp page and get
the following error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'
Permission denied: 'MsgBox'

/default.asp, line 12

The script processes a form and other than this problem with MsgBox, the
script works fine. I've Googled the error but so far haven't found an
answer that applies. Any idea what the problem might be and how I can get
it to work?

You can't use MsgBox in server-side code. Think about it. Who will be at the
server's monitor waiting to click the OK button?

As a followup question, is there a way I can code in MsgBox in the .asp page
so that it is processed on the client computer after being process by the
server?

Somebody posted an example a while back of response.writing a client-side
script block containing a statement that would be executed in the
window_onload event. Something like this:

<%="<script type='text/javascript'>msgbox 'some message'</script>"%>
