You can provide a user interface (UI) for your program through the use of the block styler, winforms, some NX selection commands, or (to a limited extent) message and input boxes. There is no way (that I know of) to pull up a standard NX dialog box, wait for user input, and use the values as input for your journal.

The advantage of custom programs is to speed things up by calculating values and eliminating user input as much as possible. If you can calculate the values that you need based on other objects in the file, it would be to your advantage to do so. If you absolutely need user input, you will have to use one of the methods mentioned above.
