i would like to start in FB and the first step I made was to try to open a QB file in FB. Whatever I do, I get a negative answer and the request to save the file with .bas, which is already done. I reopened my QB file and saved it as FBfile. Same aswer.
What is plese the correct way to open a file in FB?
Thanks for help.

QB64 would have probably run it immediately! FB requires the language switch to run Qbasic code and even then, it may not work right!

'$lang:"qb"

Place at top of code.

BTW, there IS a forum for FB questions...

For a trial, very disappointing. Was curious of FB due to dythirambic testimonies from everybody in this site.
Thanks and till next time.
