Can i add a string "answer" into another inputdlg (text) question?

Lets say i first ask my 'user' a question about his/her name with inputdlg command, they input answer. i.e John. Then say i want to make a second question with previous user input included, lets say i want to ask a second with inputdlg command, to get answer on another question... i.e.... Hi 'John'<--(previous user input) , how fast can my car go? is this possible? if so, how?

Thanks in advance!

Isak, try this code. Adapt as needed:

% Ask user for their name.
defaultValue = {'John'};
titleBar = 'Enter your name';
userPrompt = 'Enter your name';
caUserName = inputdlg(userPrompt, titleBar, 1, defaultValue);
if isempty(caUserName),return,end; % Bail out if they clicked Cancel.
usersName = caUserName{1}; % Convert from cell array to string.

defaultValue = {'100'};
userPrompt = sprintf('Hi, %s.  How fast can your car go?', usersName);
caSpeed = inputdlg(userPrompt, titleBar, 1, defaultValue);
if isempty(caUserName),return,end; % Bail out if they clicked Cancel.
speed = str2double(caSpeed{1});

message = sprintf('%s, your car can go %f miles per hour.\n', usersName, speed);
uiwait(helpdlg(message));
