Enduser Input field for What-If Scenario

Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:02:09 GMT

I've been looking for a sample script where the end-user can key in a number value in order to simulate different outcomes. Or where an end-user can enter dates which can be used for a From/To selection, adhoc. Does anyone have a simple example that I can study? Thank you.

Use the input box. This will set a variable which you can use in your expressions.

Hello Marc. I created the input box and I see how it accepts a value from me. But how do I access that field value in my script? I tried this line of code but doesn't work:

Set vInputField = myinputfield;

Why would you set a new variable off of another variable? The input box is already setting a variable for you so you would just need to use that.

Thanks. I see now how it works. I did a Variables Overview and saw my inpu field (myinputfield) in there as a variable. All I have to do is reference it in my script and off we go, right. I just didn't understand how it worked. Thank you, Marc!!
