You need to use the XmMessageBoxGetChild (Programmers Reference page 1-611) to access the
button widgets that you want to remove. Then use the Intrinsics routine XtUnmanageChild to
get rid of the unwanted buttons.

For example to remove the help button:

        Widget  helpButtonWidget;

        helpButtonWidget = XmMessageBoxGetChild(messageBoxWidgetID, XmHELP_BUTTON);
        XtUnmanageChile(helpButtonWidget);
