The Final Say -------------------------------------------------- 1. [no subject] From: william bulmer Date: Thursday, July 30, 1998 5:35 PM qb: Hello, I would like to know if anyone has qbasic 4.1(the qbasic version which has a built in EXE. compiler). IF you don't have this, does anyone know how to write a qbasic program that compiles a QB program into EXE. One more thing, how do I create a Qbasic sprite without drawing to image first? In other words, how would I store data in an array used for a sprite and know exactly what I'm doing to create a desired image? Can someone please answer? -William Bulmer _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

From: Jeff Prevett Date: Friday, July 31, 1998 10:31 PM I am trying to program a database to store all my music info (CD's Tapes, LP's ect.). I cannot get it to work properly. I am good at programming other things, but I don't know much about databases (using TYPE...) I have 'QBasic Programming for dummies' and used there telephone database as a 'template' changing it for me to use. I have everything working BUT the search function. I can not get it to find anything. I would like to be able to just specify the Artist or the title of the Album. I have attached my code that I am having problems with. Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------- 3. Please help!

The Final Say From: Jeff Rapp Date: Sunday, August 2, 1998 10:35 AM Hi again! Great turnout for the second issue. I have left all of the questions in this issue unanswered so that we can get some input from the rest of you! On the subject of the survey, I've only gotten 11 responses. Some people asked to see the source to the survey. I'll try to post it next time. Others also wanted to see some website reviews. So, if you want a website reviewed for the Newsletter, just send it to me. I've also setup a subscription center.
