MMcBrine Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi All, I have been all over the forms trying to solve a SIMPLE problem. I have a console application that needs to have the user enter a path from the console window during run time, and not passed to the script at the command line... Any thought... --Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juvigy Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Shouldnt a simple "inputbox" do the trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the console is @ the command line while the data should go to a other field ormenu item ? Edited November 16, 2009 by MisterC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the console is @ the command line while the data should go to a other field ormenu item ?I have a script that is run from the Command Console window, it preforms a few task and then promts for a path to write out some information. what I am trying to figure out is how to have the console application pause and read the information the the user enters. I beleive and I could be wrong but the inputbox is for a GUI interface, and I am trying to get away from the gui..Thanks--Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mobius Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) Hi MMcBrine,You could give my command shell dll's a try here or this very nice alternative might interest you here Edited November 16, 2009 by Mobius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juvigy Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Inputbox is what you need. It is not for GUI only.Just put it in your script and that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
