If you have some table, where checkbox value is saved, you can use timer event for checking of this value (some dlookup). Timer event could be set in any form and popup message can be displayed for this user.

what i really want to do is, as soon as the user login to the system, there is a popup notice that say's " you're message has been replied by the administrator", and the user have an option to read or ignore the message

It is very simple. In on open event for first form, add dlookup for checking is message for this user or not and, if exists, open msgbox ... and add other actions

Can you upload sample from your DB (only related forms and tables with test data)?
How are you identifying user?

You can test my code also pressing shift
