Pete's QBASIC Site

Hi
I tried to get help on the FB site but to no avail, if i try to compile anything (unless its not my program) it displays a message saying "not saved as .bas (it was) header/include file not linked (there is no headers or included files (i think)) error on line: (it has no number)"
i tried closing it and recompiling the program but it didn't work
please help me
i use VonGordics IDE, if i compile the code with the IDE it doesn't work either

Best thing to do is:

Make sure you have the most recent version of the IDE and the Compiler.

if you do have them....make sure the file has the .bas extension. Make sure that in the previous environment you used to save that bas file, make sure you saved it as a text file (the option should be in the Save As dialog.

then recompile it with FBC and see what happens...let me know if it worked and we'll look at other alternatives...

Perhaps if you pasted the code here in the forum. we might know what's going on and why it could possibly not compile.

Yeah, I once had a crappy IDE + Compiler set that wouldn't compile a thing... Get the latest from VonGondric's FB IDE site, at the very top on the download list... very nice... (Looking at post, more than likely you got a older IDE, or compiler)

sorry i meant to say whether i use the ide or not (just using fbc.exe) it won't work
and the code can be as simple as
PRINT "Hello"
and it still won't work
I have just downloaded both the ide and fb from the site

I use the IDE, I never have much luck compiling with the command line...
