Dale, first, your code is a bit backward, & 2nd, as Travis points out,
you're not saving the result to a variable. Here's how the code should
look. Can u tell me why?
Script save ()
var
string sName
let sName = "" ;initializes variable to empty string
let sName= InputBox ("name of book", "What is the name of the book?", sName)
delay (3)
TypeString (sName)
EndScript
