Hi John --

>>Was it Clipper that had the old TONE(freq,duration) function? Or was it QB or both? Boy, would that come in handy for Steve.<<

In QB/PDS, it was called SOUND, and you could specify both frequency and duration. There was also PLAY, with which you could specify actual notes, octaves, durations, etc. Fun stuff for the truly bored. <g>
