Note: Although the dialog box input text parser tries to determine a type of list item automatically, a text
enclosed in quote signs "" is always considered to be a string.



Remark:

This function works only for VS Engines controlled via a GUI. For VSEs controlled by COM/Automation™ clients,
it does nothing.

This function "locks" the UWBTracer application, which means that there is no access to other application
features until the dialog box is closed. To prevent too many InputBox calls (in case a script is not written
correctly), VSE keeps track of all function calls demanding user interaction and doesn't show dialog boxes if
some customizable limit is exceeded (returns a null object in that case).

Example:

if(Something)

{

v = InputBox("Enter the list", "Some stuff",

"Hello world !!!, 0x12AAA, Some, 34");

ReportText (FormatEx("input = %s, 0x%X, %s, %d", v[0],v[1],v[2],v[3]));

… # Go on…

str = InputBox("Enter the string", "Some stuff",

"", _IB_STRING);

ReportText(str);

}
