Where do I find QuickBasic?


Back to QBasic FAQ Main Page.

Internet software marketers still carry QuickBasic as it was last released, but finding a place that actually sells it, or has a copy available for registration is difficult. If found, the price of QuickBasic hasn't altered much since it's release. At last check, the best price found was for $89 American dollars sold through a marketer in the U.K. Other places were selling it for as much as $145. If you search the Internet and WWW you should be able to find several places that still offer not only QuickBasic, but other compilable Basic languages too.

You may also discover some less-than-reputable types that offer QB4.5 free for download. Downloading such a copy is not recommended, as QuickBasic is still not released for such use.

  • PLEASE NOTE! - Copying QuickBasic down from another computer will not get you a registered copy. Registration for older software is keep at the developer. Most software developers don't usually transfer registrations either. Pirating a copy is considered illegal. Programmers Heaven does not encourage, nor does it support software piracy.
There is a site dedicated in selling old DOS devlopement tools: http://www.emsps.com/oldtools/msbas.htm
