The name 'InputBox' does not exist in the current context
Hi,
I have this error: The name 'InputBox' does not exist in the current context.
By making this methode:
private void cmuTitle_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string value = "";
if (InputBox.Show("Set Note's title", "title:", ref value) == DialogResult.OK)
{
gpclStNotes.Text = value;
}
}
Who can help me?
Peter

Are you following the instructions there exactly? (They are in C# and not Visual Basic I hope).

The code you found is NOT using the VB.Net InputBox()...it must be a custom replacement.
The VB.Net InputBox() function:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6z0ak68w(VS.90).aspx
...is just a wrapper for the legacy VB6 InputBox() function:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa445028(VS.60).aspx
Neither returns a DialogResult. Instead, it returns the value entered into the box. Hitting Cancel or the 'X' returns a blank string, and you can't differentiate whether the user cancelled the dialog or hit OK with no input.
InputBox() is part of Microsoft.VisualBasic, but is actually located in Microsoft.VisualBasic.Inte
Project --> Add Reference --> Microsoft.VisualBasic.
Add "using Microsoft.VisualBasic;".
Now qualify it with "Interaction".

InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string name = Interaction.InputBox("Name: ", "Please enter your name...");
label1.Text = name;
}
}
}
Try to right-click over "InputBox" and see if you can see "Resolve"...
