How to get a Pop-Up inputbox using a ToolStripMenuItem ?

I got a working program (Form1.xx) and added a menuStrip1 to it.

The first was the quit with the instruction;

private void quitToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

this.Dispose();

}

Okay, fine thats working.

Now I want to attach "something" to: private void enterGetalToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e);

What I want to attach is a "simple" Pop-Up InputBox in C# to enter a number or letters, and after press the OK button
the Pop-Up Console must close and I want to use the variable in my program again.

Very simple to do in Visual Basic, but C# is driving me crazy. I read solutions with form in form samples and also a
solution to use the command: using Microsoft.VisualBasic;

Seems to be simple, but I really don't get it to write more then 90 lines of coding to get it working, if it will work ?

OK, back again with the solution for c#

Just add an item under the lines;

private void enterGetalToolStrimMenuItem-Click(object sender, EventArgs e);

Microsoft.Visualbasic.Interaction.Inputbox("Getal ?","BoxTitle","Default Text");

This is really all. So no pages of coding. Just 2 lines. Happy coding !! :)
