Might be the wrong NG, but I read this one...

D7 pro. Wanted an inputbox for integers. Looked in the help files (the
updated ones). Overloaded versions there for double and integer. Wasted an
hour (not used overloaded functions that much, assumed it was my code).
Looked in the source code. No overloaded versions. Bugger. Wrote a box
with a new form.

Is this a mistake? Is it another difference between pro and higher
versions? If it is can we have pro help files that won't make me look for
functions that aren't there?
