I need to display a msgbox prior to launching an application on terminal services how can I do this?



The program msgbox on the stoneware utilities download page can accomplish this. The parameters are :

prompt_string: 
The rest of the line will be the prompt/message string. 
If quoted then each quoted string will be on a separate line. 

Errorlevels returned:

Once the wnssoclient supports launching multiple programs this can be used to display a message. The wnssoclient can also display a prompt that you can use to alert a user.
