Why won't my program load in Qbasic?


Back to QBasic FAQ Main Page.

It is possible that the program you acquired was not written in QBasic. Or if it was written in QuickBasic, the author did not save the file in ASCII format. Often times program authors will post their wares, then in an effort to save time, will refer to QuickBasic as QBasic. As previously stated, QuickBasic *.BAS files may not necessarily load into QBasic. (You can thank these authors for further confusing new QBasic users, by referring to QuickBasic as QBasic).

It is also possible that file was created by any one of the following BASIC programming languages; QuickBasic4.5, QuickBasic PDS, TurboBASIC, Visual Basic, BasicA, GWBasic, Apple Basic, Tandy Basic, Microsoft Basic, and many, many more.
