What is the simplest way to implement a Modal(popup) MessageBox that allows a custom value to be entered and returned. In my case, a String.

Maybe I am over thinking this but I figured I'd ask. I plan to just create a new Form. Add a label, a textbox, two buttons. Assign the textbox to a property and from my main form call a ShowDialog() on it.

Will I be able to still access the property that way or should I somehow return the value?

Is this a decent way of doing this?
