When you say "worked very well", have you actually gotten this to work
running Easy SQR/Report Mate?  My experience has been that Report Mate
simply does not use the communications box for INPUT prompting.  We have
simply used SQRW or SQRWT in those situations where we really needed that
functionality.

It is my understanding that this bug was fixed in SQR Workbench for Windows
(the new name for what used to be Report Mate) version 4.  I haven't tried
it yet, though.
