Using the virtual keyboard for op input

Hi,

is there any way to open the virtual keyboard for operator input on the IRC5 flexpendant? For instance, I'd like the operator to enter a string at program startup.

I need something similar to 'ReadNum nVar, "Enter a number";' but with strings.

Or is it only possible with RAB?
