Re: fn() in qb64

Try this one:

Code: Select all

DECLARE FUNCTION fy! (value AS SINGLE)

CLS
a! = 420.75
a! = fy(a!)
PRINT a!

FUNCTION fy (value AS SINGLE)
  fy = 360 * (value / 360 - INT(value / 360))
END FUNCTION

Re: QuickBasic on Windows 7 with DOSBox

Finally part four has been subsequently added: Part 4 - A useful Tool
In this chapter I'd like to present you Basic 2 DOSBox that allows you to combine QuickBASIC and DOSBox with just a few clicks.

Re: Opening old programs in QBasic in Win 7

Many thanks, Crossroads. I'll keep DOSBox in mind.

He has a number of programs half-written, some quite long, which he desperately wants to continue working on. I've managed to get QBasic running in VM Player as per the instructions here: http://www.qbasic.n...

I need to handle Windows/XP long-file-names and it doesnt appear that QB 7.1 can do the job. And Ive got several thousands files, so individually RENAME'g isnt an option.

Thx
