PROMPT – This command creates a standard windows message box with text supplied to the command. Yes and No buttons are included in the message box. If the user clicks the yes button, the variable will be set to 1, if the no button is pressed, the variable will be set to 0. The value if this variable can be tested to determine program flow. To include the value of a variable in the prompt, include the name of the variable in square blankets (for example, [DIAM]). The format is:

VAR = PROMPT PromptText;

- VAR is the name of a variable that will accept the choice of the operator.

- PromptText should pose a yes/no question to the user.

an example:

ANS = PROMPT “Okay to update Work Offsets?”;

If ANS = 0 then GOTO END;
