Which control to use for quick text input (inputbox)?

I need to display a dialog box which contains an input text to let the user type something and press ok, so I can read the typed text and do other things.

Is there anyone who knows the name of it ?

Solution 1

You can use the InputBox from VB6 by referencing the DLL. Here is a link on how to do this in C#:

Solution 2

There is no such a thing in C#. You have to create dialogbox with input on your own. Take a look here, there is a good example how to do that.

Solution 3

You can use Interaction.InputBox() method, which comes within Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace. You can use it in C# project by simply adding Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll assembly reference.
