QBASIC to Visual Basic
- Thread starter TJay
- Start date
Converting Qbasic to VB can be tricky. The following Qbasic statements don't have an equivalent in VB:<br>
Data, Restore, Swap, Read, Chain<br>
<br>
In addition, most of the screen handling (GUI) will have to be redesigned.<br>
<br>
However, if most of your program just does computation, the coversion should not be too bad. You will have to look out for variable names though. For example, in Qbasic, A$, A&, A%, etc. can all be DIFFERENT variables. VB does not distinguish them as different, so you may have to do some renaming of variables.<br>
<br>
If you find any way around the problems I have mentioned, let me know.
