You're right, getting yesterday's date is not a simple matter. You need to have a table or array of the number of days in each month, plus when you're dealing with February, you need to have logic to determine leap year. I've done this before, so why don't you post the code that you have for this an...

Thammel, I'm kinda lost now regarding your problem. Don't let the guys kid you about being an engineer. I've worked with many sharp engineers. I have found that basically they don't like to program --- it's really not their bag. They only program to solve some given problem, so they can get back to ...

Re: Suddenly very slow to open files!!
Hi, I'm a long time QB user at work - an engineer, of course. Suddenly I"m having a very slow response when I do my FO - it takes about a minute to display the directory structure and since I'm about 4 layers down it takes about 4 minutes or so to open the code. This is very annoying! We're us...

I think the problem is the following:
Before the while, you need to set x=0,
otherwise the while will start off with x equal to what it was before.
*****
Code: Select all
while x < 30
print freshSTU(x), freshGPA(x)
x = x + 1
wend
otherwise the while will start off with x equal to what it was before.
*****

Yeah, but like many others, he hasn't come back to acknowledge the help given nor anything. ***** What a surprise... But yeah, I was harsher than needed, because I forgot to check his postcount. This guy actually has one, and so I should just have left the topic without posting at all. My bad. Not ...

Re: HELP! calculating student's average
...... The program is almost done, i just need professional help to perfect it. Actually, you program looks good, but has a lot of problems, especially with the nested WHILE/WENDs. One problem with WHILE/WENDs is that there is no EXIT WHILE. So try to use DO/LOOPs instead where you can get out with...

Hey guys, I think we were a bit too rough on Jason. Yes, I agree, the post is about homework. However, he's not asking us to do the homework, he's just asking for a little help to fix it up. He also posted a pretty nice program so we can see that he's well ahead on doing the homework. Give the kid a...

"are you prepared for emergencies with a kit?" I've been following this thread for a week now. Basically, Sid, you have a good idea, and some of your suggestions, and those by others, are good. I would just like to clarify that it's impossible to be prepared for every kind of disaster or ...

Re: Encrypting a Text File?
When you save a QBASIC Program to a text file and store variables in it, is there anyway to encrypt the numbers so people using the program can't alter the variables? I think you guys are missing DWolf's point. His concern is that the user of the program can load the source file into QBasic and usi...

While compiling from the prompt I'm using the following: bc /o /Ot /Fs /G2 /Fpi /E /X filename; link filename.obj,lib\qbx.lib+lib\bcl71efr.lib; For some odd reason the compiler askes for the brt71efr.lib but I can't locate it anywhere on the disk.... You said: "While compiling from the prompt....
