Create an Input Box (VBA) for Variables

[rustyfishbones]

Hi All,

I have 10 variables, where I want the user to change the value in these variables based on certain criteria.

I could just have something like this where the user could just change it.But I find it awkward to add the qty

I would like to have an input box something like the image below, and that would populate the variable

Alan,

I'm probably missing something - but why don't you use the regular QV input box object?

Regards,

Michael

Hi,

you can use QV inputbox object as Michael mentioned.

You can define variables and link them to input boxes

I don't like it, it can be quite cumbersome

Anyway, I think I have a solution I got from the API guide

here it is, I have a variable called input.picking.ops

And I added this to the Edit Module

SUB inputpickingops

oldtext = ActiveDocument.Evaluate("input.picking.ops")

t = ActiveDocument.GetApplication.InputBoxEx("Enter New Variable Value for input.picking.ops :",oldtext)

ActiveDocument.Variables("input.picking.ops").SetContent t,true

END SUB

With this result
