The dbInput() Command is supposed to take a char pointer and an int (well that is what the documentation says) but when I try to use the command:

// Ask for a value
int a;
dbInput("Enter a: ",a);

It has a random error:
: error C2660: 'dbInput' : function does not take 2 arguments
It says it takes 2 args in the documentation

It also says that the string is optional except:

// Ask for a value
int a;
dbInput (a);

Another nasty build error:
error C2660: 'dbInput' : function does not take 1 arguments

Mabey im just not using the command in the right way/or the documentation is wrong...

It cant be "a = dbInput()" because the function returns void

Have you tried :

char *ptr=dbInput();

?

Its a case of the documentation being wrong.
