User Defined Dialog

Is it possible to create a user defined dialogue in a sub-routine enabling the input of variable values? For example, I want to obtain forecast values based on different values of an independent variable(s). Thanks.

Yes. Lookup @uidialog, or see some of the later posts here:

Many thanks for the prompt reply. Presumably I would use a scalar input? Do yo have a two-line example where I enter, say, a value equal to 8?
I have tried the following and get a value of 0.0000 in the variable value1, irrespectve of what value I enter:
%value1 = ""
scalar value1= @uiedit(%value1,"Enter a value")
Thanks.
