Step 5: Right-click on the Sequence activity container and select Annotations from the
context menu.
Step 6: Enter the annotation “This block of code demonstrates a workflow using
.ToString method that converts an integer to string.”
Step 7: Drag and drop an Input Dialog activity, name it as “Input Dialog - User Name”,
