Changing Directories

Post by hpemmerl »

I want to keep my program and data in a particular file. I can save the data file, but the program keeps saving to the default c:/dos folder. Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

Are you using QBasic or QuickBasic?

Default drive

Post by RalphA »

I, too, am interested in this matter of the default drive in QuickBASIC.

At present, I have a subdirectory, called QuickBASIC, in which I have all the QuickBASIC program files (16 of them), and, whenI bring up QuickBASIC (qb.exe), that IS the default drive. Hoever, all my progrmas are in a subdirectory of that one, so, to start one, I must first change the directory.

Maybae there is a way of making the default drive be whichever one a person wants, and, yet, have QuickBASIC know where to go for its own operational files and librarys?
