winDialogString(message, default)
Arguments

character. The information field of the dialog box. |
default |
character. The default string. |
Value
For winDialog a character string giving the name of the button
pressed (in capitals) or NULL (invisibly) if the user had no
choice.
For winDialogString a string giving the contents of the text
