[Shane Mergy]

ok i am dev. this program with c# and need to know the
way to display a messagebox with a text control for imput
like vb's input box

 

[Daniel Moth]

if you don't want to write it from scratch....

reference Microsoft.VisualBasic

then from C# type
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox

Cheers

I haven't checked, but I don't think any of the Microsoft.VisualBasic
namespace exists in the CF.

 

[Alex Feinman [MVP]]

It actually does - that's how they implement all the VB functions.

Are you sure you are not confusing it with the
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility namespace? That one is missing...
Microsoft.VisualBasic isn't (although like the System.XX assemblies it is
missing some classes/methods)...

Having said that I haven't specifically tried InputBox on

CF...

It works but, unsurprisingly, you get a full screen
instead of an actual message box with space for a text
field. Kind of goofy-looking.
