You can use "run".  Let's say you have a text box "text1" and you type
"hello" into it.  If you have a procedure named "hello" than executing
"run text1" will run the procedure "hello".  If there is other text in
the textbox then you will have to parse the text to extract the
procedure name. If the text box contains "hello world" then "run item 1
parse text1" will run "hello".
