C# inputbox

Question

Hello,

    I have a doubt, I try to ask the user a value in VB, I used the inputbox.
but in C # can not do this. if someone can help me

 Res_max= MessageBox.Show("O number max is " + num_max_itens +". Do you need update this values","Max value", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question );

                   if (Res_max_ == DialogResult.Yes)
                   {
                       num_max_itens= inputbox("Ask the user for new value");

                   }

Thanks

Answer 1

There's no equivalent in C#.  You can either create a custom form that will do this for you, or you can add a reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic, and then use code such as the following:

using Microsoft.VisualBasic;

namespace Test
{
    internal class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            Interaction.InputBox("Do you need to update the values?", "Max Value", string.Empty, -1, -1);
        }
    }
}

Thanks for the reply,

the problem is that Interaction is not working in C # 2008.

Answer 3

Did you add a reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic, and then add the using statement?
