Per the fsdn:
Function: InputBox
Description
This function displays a simple dialog box containing four controls.
One control is an edit box in which you can enter information. Another
control is a Static Text window containing the prompt of the edit box.
The other two controls are the OK and Cancel buttons. If you enter
text into the Edit box and press the OK button, the text you typed in
the Edit box is returned to the calling function by way of the third
variable of the function, which is a string variable that is passed by
reference to the calling function.
Returns
Type: Int
Description: Returns 1 if the OK button was pressed. Returns 0 if the
cancel button was pressed.
Parameters
Param 1:
Type: String
Description: The text of the message that you would like to be
displayed in the prompt of the Edit Box.
Include: Required
Param 2:

Include: Required
Param 3:
Type: String
Description: This parameter is passed to the calling funcction or
script by reference. If you type text in the Edit box and press the OK
button, this parameter returns the text that you typed to JFW. If you
do not enter text into the Edit box or you press the Cancel button,
this parameter contains a NULL string,

The 1st parameter is the prompt, e.g., "enter number of rows." The 2nd

like:
script EnterRows()

string sRows,
int iRows
InputBox("Enter number of rows", "Data Entry", sRows)
;convert rows to an actual number u can calculate with
let iRows = stringToInt(sRows)

Blame the computer--why not? It can't defend itself & occasionally
might even be the culprit
