I put in an Icon box for script and it works where it gives output box saying "Script Completed" after a condition is met in the script. The problem is I want to put the Win32::MsgBox output in a variable and just put the variable in place each time I need it. It does output correctly on each condition but it also outputs the original declaration part so I get two outputs of "Script Completed". How can I correct this? Here is my example: 
use Win32;
use strict;

my $output = Win32::MsgBox("Script completed.", MB_ICONINFORMATION);  
+ #this part outputs all the time.

#conditions here etc..
if(something){
      $output;  #if this condition is met it outputs and works as it s
+hould
}
else {
  $output;   if this condition is met it outputs and works as it shoul
+d

}
