RTFM:

Inputfield

A field may be flagged as an input field by listing it in an inputfield statement

before it is referenced in any load or select statement.

Input fields behave somewhat differently as compared to regular fields. The

most important difference is their ability to accept changes in field values,

interactively or programmatically, without running the script. Field values

must be loaded into the field via load or select statements. Each field value

loaded in the script will create a placeholder for a field value replacement

value. Only existing field values can thus be changed interactively or programmatically.

In input fields all field values will be treated as distinct,

regardless if several have the same value.

The syntax is

inputfield ListOfFields

where

ListofFields is one or more field names separated by commas.

The wildcard characters * and ? are allowed in field names. Quoting

of field names is sometimes necessary when using the wildcards as

part of field names.
