 INPUTBOX$(prompt$ [,title$ [,default$ [,xpos%, ypos%]]])
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ If the user chooses the OK button or presses Enter, INPUTBOX$ returns
     whatever is in the edit box. If the user chooses the Cancel button,
     INPUTBOX$ returns a null string ("").
 
   ■ If prompt$ consists of more than one line, be sure to include a
     carriage return (CHR$(13)) and a linefeed (CHR$(10)) between each line.
 
   ■ If you omit xpos%, you must also omit ypos%. If xpos% and ypos% are
     omitted, the dialog box is horizontally and vertically centered.
 
   ■ The dialog box is movable and closable, but not sizable. Width and
     height are fixed at 46 x 16.
