How do you make a dialog box ?

Hey,

here is C# .NET solution:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
double value = 0;
if (InputBox("GPA", "Enter desired GPA:", ref value) == DialogResult.OK)
{
//use the var
}

}

public static DialogResult InputBox(string title, string promptText, ref double value)
{
Form form = new Form();
Label label = new Label();
TextBox textBox = new TextBox();
Button buttonOk = new Button();
Button buttonCancel = new Button();

form.Text = title;
label.Text = promptText;
textBox.Text = value.ToString();

buttonOk.Text = "OK";
buttonCancel.Text = "Cancel";
buttonOk.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
buttonCancel.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel;

label.SetBounds(9, 20, 372, 13);
textBox.SetBounds(12, 36, 372, 20);
buttonOk.SetBounds(228, 72, 75, 23);
buttonCancel.SetBounds(309, 72, 75, 23);

label.AutoSize = true;
textBox.Anchor = textBox.Anchor | AnchorStyles.Right;
buttonOk.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Right;
buttonCancel.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Right;

form.ClientSize = new Size(396, 107);
form.Controls.AddRange(new Control[] { label, textBox, buttonOk, buttonCancel });
form.ClientSize = new Size(Math.Max(300, label.Right + 10), form.ClientSize.Height);
form.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog;
form.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
form.MinimizeBox = false;
form.MaximizeBox = false;
form.AcceptButton = buttonOk;
form.CancelButton = buttonCancel;

DialogResult dialogResult = form.ShowDialog();
value = Convert.ToDouble( textBox.Text);
return dialogResult;
}
