short comeback
please, can anybody help to fix this powerbasic dll example "input.bas" ? I tried to compile it but without success, line 28 may be a problem. I want to understand the dll handling for thinbasic too. I was working at an project during my training course (with freebasic and thinbasic for one of our programming course as viewing how to create message boxes examples). Now I would like to understand how to do this one on pb
I have bought last week-end powerbasic 9.1 and have had a short look at this interesting tool. now my first question. would be great to get any help. I have in mind to create new things for thinbasic too, my novel is going up to the end now and I am very proud of it to finish the book until end of october, so there will be more time for thinbasic.
powerbasic code:
