>I'm preety sure. I abandoned QuickBasic around the time Windows 2.0 was appearing. I just used it to port some MSX Basic programs that my company used to track service (we produced MSX machines). Both versions were quite simmilar, and I remember that I used CHR$ to store tiny integers as characters. Hey! My database was SO HUGE that it occupied more that a single 5" 1/4 disk! I couldn't misuse the space.

I am!:-)

I'll whip out the old QB disks next week when I get back to office and check. Just a curiousity thing, mind you. In all honesty, I not be 100% certain.

At any rate, probably the easiest thing to do would be to use the original language (now VB) to make the conversion. It would solve a lot of problems and be more efficient in terms of code. Of course, without the structure, the whole thing would be guess work.

From what I gather (read "assume") this old program is still functioning, this means two things. One, if that's the case, then writing a QBasic program for the conversion is definetly the way to go. Two, source code and the structure are available. As I recall, QBasic didn't have a compiler.
