Unable to compile 1

[makrohard]

I have written a huge prog in msqb uning the lib qb.qlb and the sub absolute.<br>I was not able to compile it, because of it´s size, so I splitted it up into 3 files. now I can compile two of them, the third tells me <br>´^ Überlauf des Programmspeichers´ means overflow of the program memory...<br>2nd: This Prog does crash any computer wihout a DOS-Mousedriver (Sub Absolute) and does not respond an err-code, why?<br>I would be glad if anyone out there could help me , because I need this Prog in ca 2 weeks...<br>

You may have to break it up into smaller files (perhaps somewhat less than 12kb each). I assume that at least one of your BAS files is larger. Also, make sure they are saved as text and not with the &quot;fast load and save&quot; option selected. <p> <br><a href=mailto:InterruptX@excite.com>InterruptX@excite.com</a><br><a href=

It is nearly impossible to spit the prog in such small files, because of its complexity. No file is larger than 64 kb, I saves it as text. Thanx 4 your reply-

You should try one of these to see if it works: <br><br>1) try on a system that has more memory (if available).. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;..if not, then remove any TSRs you may have running <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(with the exception of memory managers), exit any <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;shells, reduce size of buffers, et cetra..anything to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;give you more memory and try compiling again.<br><br>2) if you still get an 'OVERFLOW' message, in the book <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;entitled &quot;Microsoft(R) QuickBASIC(TM)&quot; it states: <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;OVERFLOW--The result of a calculation is too large to <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;be represented within the range allowed for either <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;floating-point or integer number. (Run-time error)<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;[ERR code:6]&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp;Based on this, I recommend that you <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;review your variables and check to see which one may <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;need to be upgraded to a possible Double-precision <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;number (the '#' symbol).&nbsp;&nbsp;-OR-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set all variable to <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DEFDBL (but of course more memory would be useful).<br><br>As for the mouse, I would recommend that you use the <br>INTERRUPT 33h instead of the ABSOLUTE.&nbsp;&nbsp;From what I have <br>read, the INTERRUPT uses the existing &quot;MOUSE DRIVER <br>SOFTWARE&quot; as an interface to the mouse. Whereas the <br>ABSOLUTE code requires that the mouse be placed in <br>very specific memory seg.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are interested in <br>attempting to use the INTERRUPT function I would recommend <br>that you visit the Microsoft(R) web site, click on &quot;PRODUCT <br>SUPPORT SERVICES&quot; and then search for (by article) <br>&quot;Application Note HD1008&quot; or (by subject) &quot;Programming the <br>Microsoft Mouse under MS-DOS(R)&quot;<br><br>Good Luck.&nbsp;&nbsp;
