[Help] Functionalities that specify mxd layer by dialog box

[Exis78]

I want to build ArcGIS extension with this functionality. Samples i've found on JDK only show the way to add a custom functionalities to menu. I'm not sure about combining it with dialog box.

In the dialog box, I want to specify some field and the functionalities will find one match .shp or coverage, together with its symbology (avl/lyr). And after such an OK-button clicking, the layer will be put automatically to current mxd. Or, if it will be the best, it will generate new .mxd.

Regards,

I still confused how to do this.
I understand how to launch the form and capture the event.
But, I don't know how to pass the variable value of some controls in Windows form to application (ArcMap/BaseCommand) so the apps could do something based on the option selected in the Windows form.

I've tried googling it, but the results is not satisfying..
