simple text input dialogebox

Question

VB programmers know that there was an inputbox dialoge box for asking user to simply input an string.
I'm just curious that if there is any similar in C# or I have to use a designed form?

tnx.

You can just use the visual basic function:

string returnVal = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox("Enter a string", "Title", "", -1, -1);

This is not working for me. It says Interaction does not exist in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace for VS 2010.

You have to import Microsoft.Visualbasic into your references, then it will work as explained.

The same method still exists in VB.NET!

I know, I didn't ask for VB. I asked for its existence in .Net! C# maybe!

@MBZ C# is to .NET as Square is to Rectangle.
