Input Dialog Box?

[Joe]

Hi,

I seem to recall that MS Access has a built in function that
displays a small dialog box that allows the user to input a text string
- sort of like MsgBox, except that it allows input.

Can anyone remember the name of this function or point me in the
right direction?


Thanks
Joe

Dim intX as Integer
intX = InputBox("How many copies?","Print copies.")

Look it up in VBA help for all of the arguments.
By the way, as you can see, the value does not have to be a text
string.
