Compiling your Basic programs


Back to QBasic FAQ Main Page.

In order compile your Basic programs, you will need a compiler. One IS NOT included with QBasic.

You can get a compiler for another version of Basic though. You can then compile programs using it, provided that your QBasic code has been edited to be syntactically correct with the compiler. Many compilers available today are closely compatible with QBasic, with QuickBasic being the most compatible. (Generally speaking, if the source code RUNS in QBasic, it will run IN QuickBasic, but compilation may require that the programmer, use proper programming techniques, conventions and structure to facilitate a correct compilation to *.EXE).

Many professional and shareware compilers are currently available, some are quite good. Each will of course, have it's own supported syntax, but with a little modification, your QB code can be complied.
