Access 2000 Text Entry MsgBox

[TheIntern03]

I'm writing an application in Access 2000. I seem to remember that there was an automated pop-up box, similar to the VBA MsgBox function, that allowed the programmer to specify a prompt, and then a text-entry pop-up would appear to the user, the return value being the string which the user entered. It's of course entirely possible that I'm making this up, but if any of you know about it, can you help me with specifics? (Or, if you know that no such thing exists, please disabuse me of my notions.)

Thanks

are u talking of an input box? if so this is an example, make a command button and name is cmdsearch and on click event past the following code:

Private Sub cmdSearch_Click()

Dim intCount As Integer
Dim strfind As String

strfind = InputBox("Please enter item to find", "Search", vbNullString)

'your code using strfind, example below will just show another box with wthat the user wrote
msgbox strfind
End Sub

That is precisely what I was looking for! Thank you very much.
