Help with Bsave

Post by Guest » Wed Dec 18, 2002 5:38 pm

I' m doing a graphic program with qb. I have to save the buffer of the screen 9 into a file. The problem is that I don' t know which is the offset for the instruction "DEF SEG" and then for the instruction "BSAVE". Can you explain how I can save the buffer?
Thank you so much.

P.S. The resolution of screen 13 is quite small, can it be more big (for example 648 X 480)?

use varpter$ and var seg...
varpter finds the offset, var seg finds the segment.

use the window command

"window screen (1,1)-(1000,1000)"

if you omit the "screen" the numbers will increase like a normal grid, with "screen" the numbering will be backwards like we are all used to in QB
