Input run-time module path:

Please help me if you know this, and thank you very much!

Ive tried to do a database before, a much simplier one but didnt know how to find strings, and what is CHR$(34) and CHR$(35), are tehey those spiecal characters (e.g. arrow keys etc?...) but I think that one line of code you gave me will do it =) cmd$ = "FIND /I " + CHR$(34) + sactname$ + ...

Ill post the whole program right now, but ive tried INPUT #1, blah$ etc but dont know what to do after that.... 'Actor database of ZSO CLS Wbackround: for i = 1 to 300 Color 0,15 Locate 15,20 PRint "Loading, Please wait." for b = 1 to 30000 next b CLS Locate 15,20 PRint "Loading, Plea...

Im trying to search for strings in the text file. But I need input from the user to see what s\he wants to search.

Now its saying im past the end of the file heh...

Ok, everything is still not working and I directly made Mac's cod3e into its own bas and it still didnt work, can someone jsut try and make it to search for the persons first name and show their profile? I will put that person who makes teh code part of teh owner. thanks!

ok fixed up code to what you guys told me, also tried moneo's LINE INPUT but still askes me for a #..what should i do? CLS ' menu menu: CLS DO COLOR 10, 0 LOCATE 5, 25 PRINT "DATABASE OF HUMANS" LOCATE 20, 55 PRINT "(2) ADD" LOCATE 20, 5 PRINT "(1) SEARCH" 'my INKEY sta...

The reason why I put "Age:"; age$ is because when i write it to the file that label will be beside it for fast identifacation, but if i dont need em jsut tell me

lmao, you dont understand my question =P what is the difference between .fil and .txt?

why do you use the .fil extension and not .txt? and what does .fil do?

Ok, none of your ideas are workin, PAtz i tried but it prints out EVERYTHING, moneo i tried but results in nothing and sid hasn't posted his code yet for his database that would be useful. remember im trying to get it to search for the name you typed in and show that names/persons profile.

im trying to get this program to search for the name of teh person when typed and display their profile here the code. CLS ' menu menu: CLS DO COLOR 10, 0 LOCATE 5, 15 PRINT "DATABASE" LOCATE 22, 30 PRINT "(2) ADD" LOCATE 22, 5 PRINT "(1) SEARCH" 'my INKEY statment kp$ ...

lmao, i guess ive solved and redid this problem like 5 times cause i remember someone sayin that =)

I keep getting an error that says "type mismatch" but everythings perfect...someone wanna look at my code and figure it out? CLS ' menu PRINT "(2) ADD" PRINT "(1) SEARCH" 'my INKEY statment kp$ = INKEY$ IF kp$ = "2" THEN GOTO Addp IF kp$ = "1" THEN G...

what im trying is using the open command to open an other file (batch) that opens the website and beetween the open and clsoe i write open "test1" (this works without the extsetion) FOR OUTPUT AS #1 INPUT "input:", in$ PRINT #1, in$ CLOSE #1 and test1 is the batch that opens the ...

also if anyone has the time to tell me what com1-2-3-4 do please

also if used com1 then it connect me to teh internet right then how would you get onto websites?

but would text to input print the text in the qbasic window??

and by text to input you mean right?

ok so VB seems to be the ONLY way (but ill look up on com3,4)

all im trying to do is make a program that sends it self to a website and writes it self in a text file and shows it on the site.
