Does any one know how to use a mouse in Qbasic as whenever I try to run a program that has mouse cababilities it comes up with errors and I can't even compile the program into an *.exe file. I have a file called mouse.zip and it was from vsmouse.zip and I have it at

Try this include file...

I've never used it but it's on Piptol's site, so it's as good as a sure thing.
It's a replacement for the standard QB.QLB. This one has mouse support built in I guess.

Thanks that may help me and I will try it later as I don't have my Qbasic ready at the momment but I can check it later to see if it will work. Thanks again. The absolute subrouting might help. I have tried the file and it was not working at all, in the text file that came with the file it said there was to be a program in the file to demmonstrate the mouse functions, I tried including the files and I tried to put the *.qlb file as to load on boot up of Qbasic and I tried it using QBX 7.1 can you help me? ???
