InputBox for C#???

Is there an equivalent to the VB InputBox function for C#? I am
looking for something in the FCL that will let me prompt the user for
a single string value.

Not really. But you can add a reference to 'Microsoft Visual Basic .NET
Runtime' (Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll) and access this function in the
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction namespace.

Or just roll your own.
