What I have tried:

Typically, you wouldn't do it for an individual TextBox. You'd VALIDATE the data in the TextBoxes and other controls as required, then show your "Are you sure?" MessageBox when the form is submitted, or clicks a button to make the changes.

You've already done the MessageBox "Are you sure?" thing. It just a matter of validating the data before that MessageBox is shown and actually doing the update afterwards, if the user clicked OK or Yes.

I just want them to look at what they entered again, The above code if they select no it stills saves to the database.

If that's the only line of code, then you haven't checked the response to see what it is! You need an if statement after that line to check to see what the response is and then execute code accordingly.

That sill lets them do as will, say No it still saves

You are mistaken: any code inside the first {} will be called only if the user clicks the 'Yes button.
