That's odd. You could try using Cin though.

or
_getch()

or as previously posted at : http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=122973&b=22

+ Code Snippet

#include "DarkGDK.h"

void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	dbSyncOn   ( );
	dbSyncRate ( 60 );
	dbBackdropOn();

	while ( LoopGDK ( ) )
	{
		// code from http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=122973&b=22
		char *inBuff;		 // a pointer to track the location of the resulting string
		inBuff = dbInput();      // get onscreen input and save location of the string 
		dbPrint (inBuff);	 // print the result to the screen (optional?)
		delete [] inBuff;	 // recover the memory used by the string
		dbSync ( );
	}
	return;
}

remarks
- you first need to hit enter before any text displays.
