>I've been programming in MSAccess since it first appeared. Access has an Inputbox command that displays a sort of Messagebox with any text and a blank field where you can type any number or string and save it to a memory variable. I've been looking in VFP for a similar thing but couldn't find any. Does this means that I must create a new modal form every time I want the user to type some needed piece of data? What would be the easiest way to programmatically do this?

Look in the files section and search under INPUT, you will see a class that Mike wrote that may do what you want. The next version of VFP will have an InputBox.

Hope this helps.
