Input Variables

Hello,

I use

LET vPath= Input('Folder Path', 'Info');

to display a popup before script execution from where I enter vPath variable.

What is the difference between this Input command and Inputfield vPath; syntax.

(Using Inputfield command, no popup was displayed so I was not able to enter variable value)

Thanks,

T

Hi,

     The Input() function is used when you want to take any input from user when you are reloading the script.

     where as Inputfield is used when you want to change the value of the field coming from system.

     So in your case inputfield not useful.
