Changing @Askuser Default

Is there a way to change the @Askuser default answer from "No" to "Yes"?  If not, is there a different function that might allow this flexibility?

@AskUser always defaults to "No". Can you phrase the question so that "No" would be the more common answer?

For example, instead of asking ...
"Would you like to proceed without being stabbed with a fork?"

... you could ask ...
"Would you like to be stabbed with a fork?"

Probably not worth the effort, but you could use the Translation Table to do this:

Code
Select All
var aa as string

  AddToTranslationTable("No", "Yes")
  AddToTranslationTable("Yes", "No")
  aa = @AskUser("Do you have a fork?", "", "")
  ReviseTranslationTable("No", "No")
  ReviseTranslationTable("Yes", "Yes")
