That code actually works in QB?
I see quite a few coding errors including your code comments. Look at GOTO and perhaps get in the habit of dimensioning your arrays. QB arrays can only be undimensioned to 10. Comments need ' or REM. But to answer your question, use the FOR loop where you PRINT to add the numbers together using a su...

DEF Fn
The DEF Fn function can easily be converted to a normal Function. This will allow the Function to be called repeatedly or in any part of a program.
DEF Fn is not recommended for recursive programs that repeat the DEF Fn call. That would create an error as it can only be defined once.

You can SHELL links and Windows will open them, but forget making a browser man. QB was made well before the web was a big thing! Amazingly, it allows a lot of stuff that even Windows has problems with. But M$ wants to get rid of DOS to make more money! SHELL "cmd /c start www.piday.org/million...

Actually XP limits access to DOS and VB programs
Get PortTalk off of the web free. Follow the install instructions! You must add something to the registry, but it is done for you pretty easily by clicking on a file. AllowIO.EXE must be in your QB folder unless you use command line paths. Once you have it installed, look up your port addresses in W...

Perhaps you can also use STR$(number%) to convert a number to a string. You should use LTRIM$ to eliminate the space before a positive number like this: num$ = LTRIM$(STR$(number)) Then use MID$ to rearrange each letter in the number in a counter loop. To convert a string to a number use VAL as alre...

LOF(1) returns the length of an open file opened as #1. This returns the number of bytes or characters that are in the BINARY file. Thus you know the place marker for the next PUT is one extra byte. TheChar is the one byte String I referred to as 0$ = SPACE$(1). Either way works fine. You only add (...

Why HEX? Any ASCII code could work from 0 up to 255. Hex can go beyond that limit easily. Just use: PUT #1, , CHR$(Number) to append it to a BINARY file end. To read the numbers, use GET #1, bytenumber%, O$ , where O$ = SPACE$(1) and use ASC(O$) if needed. Use a loop to read a file. If you ever need...

Well, all you really did was save an EXE as TXT and convert it back. No wonder it worked! If it was that easy to do why would you even need a compiler in QB? Try making a BAS file into a TXT file and renaming it EXE. The compiler changes your code to machine language. Notepad does not! You may have ...

Never heard of that problem
What OS are you using? QB should work in any version of Windows but Vista or XP(64) will only run SCREEN 0 programs.

So we can significantly lower trillions to thousands then and make a real program.
