As far as I know the "text" in an edit box is already a string.
string = (Edit value of (Used dialog item) for 1) <String>

Both of these statements are right- you cannot convert text into a string, but the "text" in an edit box is actually a string already. This means you can grab the string value right out of the edit box using the "edit value of (whatever dialog item)" function.

lemmy734 Regular ShmoeHi, so with edit boxes, which are text boxes basically the user can type into them. I can get the text that is typed into the edit boxes, however i cannot convert that text to something useful like a string or an integer, as far as i know atleast. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.
