Is it possible when you copy a program on line and then try to paste it on QB ,to avoid the incredible words drift from left to right at each line that I observe on my computer?Or may be I do it wrongly!

Well I don't know what your saying but:
To copy something from online to QB:
1. Select (highlight) the code.
2. Press Ctrl + Insert
3. Open NotePad
4. Left Click in the white area
5. Press Shift + Insert
6. Save as a *.bas file. ex. MyProg.BAS
7. Open QB.
8. Open your file that you just saved.
9. There you go!
You have to do that cause Windows and DOS arn't the same.

1> Open notepad/edit
2> Copy code there
3> Save
4> Rename with a .bas extension
5> Open it in QB

Both of you two, you used KeyBoard functions *Shutters* Super faster way:
>Select Code
>
Right click to get menu, select copy
>Open NotePad
>Left click white space
>
Right click to get menu, select paste
>Save As "Filename.BAS"
>Bingo, never totched the keyboard, unless you guys switch windows with "Alt + Tab",.
I believe you Nate, just wait tell you finish typing next time..
,. unless its that bad..

Ummm..Rattra...are you blind? or tired?
Nate did not say to use keyboard input. He just said copy+paste...nice observation Rattra
. I used the old DOS's copy and paste not the new windows one (ctrl+c, ctrl+v)
