InputBox output detection

I really need some precise information

How do I make a rule based on if:

1. Cancel button is selected
2. Or if OK is selcted however no input is provided in the InputBox.

I have 2 different events that are to occur depending on which occurs, and
there cannot be any overlap.


I have found that If IsEmpty(variable) can do detect both and so the same
results for both occurs from my statements. I need more finer way of determining
this.

Does anyone have any tips ?

Dim sInp : sInp = "?"

sInp = InputBox( "enter something sensible", , sInp )
If IsEmpty( sInp ) Then
WScript.Echo "!Aborted!"
Else
sInp = Trim( sInp )
If "" = sInp Then
WScript.Echo "!Empty input!"
Else
WScript.Echo "you entered", sInp
End If
End If

You'll get "!Aborted!" regardless of the entered content if Cancel
or Close (X) is pressed, but I think that's reasonable.
