Im trying to learn to use ASM with QB and everytime I do it says Subprogram not defined and CALL is highlighted. Anyone know what the problem is?

show us your code, and we might be able to shine a light...

If you're using Qbasic it should work but in Quick Basic you need the following:

Hope that helps!

Anywayz, just show us the code... It might be easier to pinpoint the location of the problem...

Yeah, some code would be nice.

But, to be safe, try this: Load QuickBASIC with the /l option, which loads the QB library for assembly support (like CALL ABSOLUTE). Then, add the following line somewhere in the start of your program:

Code: Select all

'$INCLUDE 'qb.bi'
