I got it to work sort of.

'junk.bas
for x - 1 to 99
print x
next

It compiles but when I try to run it nothing happens.


 [root@localhost FB]# ls -l
total 52
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  1583 Mar 26 00:03 fb-info.txt
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root  4096 Mar 26 00:23 FreeBASIC
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15692 Mar 25 22:26 junk
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    29 Mar 26 00:16 junk.bas
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    29 Mar 25 22:20 junk.bas~

Hi Paul,

I downloaded it just for the heck of it.  When I compiled your program,
I got an error, something to the effect it got - and was expecting =.

I edited the file to "for x = 1 to 99" and it compiled and ran OK.

That is what I had. I just copied it wrong to the email.

Where and how did you run it? In a terminal window?
I am sure glad it works. I have tons of QB source.
