Hi friends!
Im creating a app where I need to ask for a name, a string. Is there any way to get a string from keyboard without use of a view like textedit? I dont want to create another activity only to do that. In some languages we have a InputBox(), what about B4A ? Thanks!

You can use the InputDialog. It is part of the Dialogs library. Or create a panel with a edittext on and show it when needed

InputDialog is great. Jusf out of curiosity why do you need a separate activity for editText?
