PRetty good stuff in my book. I think there is knowledge there aand the way it's presented I think reaches me, the way I liked to be reached, with humor (how do I build a 3D wall and how do I really build a 3D wall I like this transition lol). I enjoyed the tutorial, and I want the 2nd part like yes...

What we need is for people to stop spitting in their roots...we're all (or were all) qb coders. some moved to FB, some C++ and a few to Pascal ;). None the less, there was a time in the community (not that long ago too) when if this would have happened to that forum or any other, reactions would hav...

Hmmm...let's not go there guys. if you want to dispute this subject take it in email. This is just the kind of thing QB or FB or any other BASIC doesn't need. Instead of destroying each other's efforts or insulting each other, why not work together to make every QB or FB place a better one? That's m...

QBSucks, cut the crap. If you hate QB and QBasic so much why do you torture yourself with your nick and torture yourself with coming to places that support these languages you hate so much. Smarten up, there's no place for this kind of stuff here. As far as OOP goes, it's a far cry from the miracle ...

based on certain user experiences it seems that the best way to get the most of QB in XP or Vista is to run them under DOSBox.

IT seems that one of two things is happening here.

That weird character i'm not sure what it is, but it seems that perhaps in that file the space was replaced with maybe an CHR$(240). You'd just need to replace them back I think

I would have a hidden "total" column that's not shown on the screen and use that to sort the records. Total or an average would work fine. You total the courses up put it in the hidden total column and you do any sort on that total column. then you just sort the array based on that last co...

QBASIC, as mentioned in the original post, has a limit of 160Kb for both Code and Data. Perhaps you've reached that limit (depends on how big your code (you .bas file) module is. Perhaps it's time to find yourself QuickBasic which doesn't have this limit. Either that or for the sake of getting the p...
